It is a fairly minor release for gnome. The problem with KDE is that it has so many features that it is harder to use and setup. It also doesn't have a focus on stability.

KDE has been very stable for years.

That's not my experience. I've had bugs

[-] TheGrandNagus@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago

Certainly not what I've experienced. But it's definitely a lot better than it was 2 years ago.

I use it daily on three devices running two different distros (void and arch). It's been as stable as xfce.

[-] TheGrandNagus@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago

I believe you. It's just far from my experience.

They've also had to spend several cycles rearchitecting the codebase and reducing duplicated efforts.

Plasma 6's future seems very bright. Especially if they keep improving Breeze especially if they keep focusing on sane defaults and a simple unified and consistent style.

I'm not sure what you mean??

KDE is usable out of the box, and very easy to use.

[-] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 1 points 9 months ago

Not for me. I want my desktop to be functional and I don't really customize all that much.

[-] Adanisi@lemmy.zip 2 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

I mean, I run basically stock KDE with the dark theme. It seems functional but maybe we just have different ideas of functional?

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
