Now, I have always loved GNOME, but I spent the last few months in KDE. That was until I switched back to GNOME a couple of weeks ago. I know it’s disliked by a lot of people, but some of these changes, like accent colors and the libadwita file save/open interface, really solidify this desktop my favorite.

    On first glance, sure. In terms of actual workflow, I’d say KDE is more similar to both MacOS and Windows and GNOME is off doing it’s own thing. The KDE = Windows and GNOME = MacOS thing feels like a holdover from the KDE3/GNOME2 days.

      GNOME2 definitely felt more Windows-like than after GNOME 3.

      GNOME is definitely its own thing in terms of workflow, but noobs will always seek an understood point of reference, and the closest thing to it is probably MacOS.
