You're in luck with KDE! If you're going to be doing Art or Videos, KDE has something for both: Krita and Kdenlive. If you need to record your screen, OBS is usually what I go for. Edit: Inkscape for SVGs, GIMP for image manipulation. Something like Audacity (or it's fork tenacity) for audio manipulation.

I've been on Fedora GNOME since the start of the year and I'm very happy with it too.

Fedora is my Linux of choice, has been for 10 years, and I've never felt the need to change. Sufficiently universal and up-to-date packages, fun tools like cockpit, inbuilt Nvidia driver packages that automatically compile and update in the background, room for power-usering as much or as little as desired. The introduction of DNF5 last year solved my last bugbear which was the clunky updating, all is well now.

My next wipe and install, I am considering trying out KDE but every time I've tried to install it alongside my preferred DE, it just tended to break everything. I'm sure a clean install would be fine but it's also learning a whole new environment. I've heard a ton of great things about but only really poked around a bit on it in a VM.

I like KDE, there's something very 'brutalist' looking about it, for lack of a better word

As a hat, the fedora is supposed to be on you, not the other way around

I use Debian with KDE now, and I'm happy with it to the point the only reason why I haven't deleted windows yet, is that I haven't found the time to move over the files I want to keep to the correct drive.

...though installing drivers for Nvidia was a PITA, and a lot of the guides are written by programmers, for programmers. Noobs not welcome.

Glad to hear you're enjoying it after I pestered you so hard to install it when you initially posted. Don't forget to update your mesa/AMD drivers, since mesa 26.0 just came out with a lot of game fixes and improvements, especially for ray tracing. Those still on Mint are missing out.

actually it's usually a Trilby not a Fedora, Fedoras have wider brims

KDE is great! I used Latte Dock before that got unmaintained and basically with the use of panels and other cuztomization stuff, my KDE just looks like a GNOME ripoff but also MacOS themed (don't ask me why, I just thought it'd looked cool). KDE is honestly a big good project that encompasses the floating window space that's general so you can style it however you want.

Since we're all Linux users here.. I use Arch btw (hah, well.. EndeavourOS technically..?)
