I’m relatively new to the linux space, I was introduced by the steam deck which uses kde, and it’s pretty similar to windows in terms of how it works so that’s the DE i’d be leaning towards when I eventually switch. I’ve never used gnome so i’m not sure if it’d be worth using I guess?

So I’m just looking for some input from the community, do you use Gnome or Plasma, why do you use it, and what’s kind of like a pros and cons kinda thing between the two?

    I use a window manager on my desktop, and gnome on my laptop. Gnome’s gestures are amazing with a touchpad

      Agreed, Mutter’s 2 finger and 3 finger swipes (similar to macOS) are one reason why I haven’t jumped from Gnome yet
