A picture of Lara Croft in new Tomb Raider hand in hand with Lara Croft from the old Tomb raider Series. The new one labeled GNOME and the old one KDE.

    KDE feels like Windows to me. GNOME is something entirely different, it’s UI is very touch friendly, only downside is it has old code all over the place.

      Out of the box, maybe, but kde is super customizable to be how you want it. I think gnome can do that too, but it feels much more opinionated and all I ready about is install scripts that break. (I haven’t tried gnome in years though)

      As a KDE guy, indeed gnome is much more polished when it comes to gestures.

      Problem is, I’m also much more of a keyboard guy, and use my laptop mostly docked and with external keyboard/mouse/monitor.

      Touchpad is out of reach most of the time, so I don’t really care about gestures.
