After 2y on Linux I can say with full confidence that switching from GNOME to KDE (for me) is a bigger barrier than switching from Windows to Linux ever was.

I’ve tried a lot to like KDE but I just can’t. I usually see people discussing distros but I feel like picking the right DE makes much bigger impact. I’m yet to try Hyprland though.

Considering the fact that I’m itching to get Steam Frame and VR on GNOME will likely be broken indefinitely, idk what to do.

    I’ve actualy went from 3 monitors to a single monitor with ton of virtual desktops. On KDE I felt very limited with just 1 screen though.

    I treat virtual desktop as a “WM” basically … one or two windows per desktop and I switch between them rapidly either with key shortcut, mouse wheel in top left corner or combined depending on what I’m doing. And when I say rapidly I mean usually multiple times per minute… it’s just so seamless.

    This does not work on KDE, it’s too slow and buggy for this workflow.
