MODERATORS
As a Gentoo user, I can say that qtbase is probably the one piece of software that caused me the most failed emerges due to some conflict of python packages.
I agree with the general sentiment, though KDEβs apps do have some real performance issues.
Dolphin sometimes takes 2-5 seconds to open on my gaming PC, whereas Nautilus (Gnome Files) is usually done before Iβve even let go of the click.
Maybe thatβs just preloading, but it makes a bloody enormous difference in everyday usage.
I prefer Plasma overall, though.
Hmm, Dolphin takes about 0.5 seconds on my laptop. Might be that worth debugging on your system, even if it is some bug that your specific system triggers.
It is easy to go fast if you have no features.
somone needs to replace gnome with windows 11 in that meme lmao.
Edit: it has been done:
Truly excellent GNOME slander. Who made this?
I just realized that this desktop environment debate has slowed down a lot these last few years. I reckon it's about time we heat it back up. I'll get the popcorn!
Honestly as a newvomer to linux using both, they're both fine. Both have their annoyances and stupidity but both are better than windows.
Sounds like something a goddamn GNOME user would say π
We'll have to see if System 76's Cosmic DE can stir up some tribalism again!
I know the hyprland Dev had some stuff to say that caused a mild shit storm. Nothing lasting though.
Are they still people giving a thing about that guys opinion? Hey is hating everything and evwrybody by no good reasons but pure gas lighting hatred
