I’ve been really happy with Fedora KDE. To me, the desktop environment determines the experience more than the distro these days, so you probably wouldn’t notice much difference in switching, so maybe not worth it.
I just like Fedora better for installing on a new system, since new hardware tends to be supported faster.
It’s hard to tell from first glance how resource intensive a program is. Any free RAM is wasted RAM so if someone pulls up an htop and judges based on that you shouldn’t listen to them at all.
I have really convenient shortcuts to move a window to full, half, or quarter screen, and to switch between 4 virtual desktops, which makes using my laptop very comfortable. I tested i3 for a bit but I found I don’t like auto-tiling, I want to control where everything goes and hide stuff I’m not using.
I’ve been on Kubuntu for a few years. I’m considering moving to something non-Ubuntu, but I’m really happy with KDE Plasma.

KDE fucking rules. I don’t care how resource intensive it is, it looks fuckin steller and is infinitely customizable.

It’s basically no more resource intensive than GNOME or Xfce. It’s very efficient and has been at least since Plasma 5.
