    Overrated, I get

    But janky? While it isn’t my DE most of the time, I’ve never had any issues.

    What kind of jank is going on that I’m missing, so I don’t use it where said jank would shank my flank.

      really? everything always acts weird and breaks on me, every time I’ve used it for 10+ years. it’s gorgeous but unusable in my book, and has been for a long time. it’s disappointing really, checking to see if KDE doesn’t suck yet and then sticking with it for a month plus because i really want it to work has practically become a form of self-harm for me. i always ditch it because the jank is un-ignorable no matter how hard i try.

            let’s be real here, what about your posting isn’t janky? for 10+ minutes every time I read it nearly every part of the post is jank in some way, no way in hell will you explain what’s janky.

      It’s been a long time since I last tried KDE but I never had luck with it. As much of a pain as it is to get working the way I wanted with extensions, once I got the setup I want GNOME is a thing of true performance and efficiency beauty.

      I’ve been using Kde for about 3 years now and to be fair, do have some issues from time to time.

      Most annoying has to be that when I try to launch discord for example, I type “discor” and press enter immediately. But it hasn’t really registered the “r” yet so it launches discover instead. But I just learned to wait a bit after typing.

      Kde also had some crashes, although very rarely. So nothing I really care about.
