I keep reading that KDE is super customizable, but nobody ever gives examples. What can be customized other than changing colors and rearranging panels? I’d love to make it my own, but I don’t have the first clue what that would mean.
They dont have anything against customization. They just dont see why they should add explicit support when they had a clear purpose/vision in mind regarding the software they Write and are lazy enough to say: yo its Not our issue when your customization breaks our apps because our apps werent intended to be Hacked with in your way
But then again im still fresh and not too Deep into either ecosystems
Customization is and always will be a key selling point of Linux, that’s why I refuse to recommend any district with gnome as DE.
You got to recommend what fits the user. Otherwise you are just telling them what fits you.
It’s all fun and games until you have to actually maintain everything as time goes on. At some point the tradeoff in personal time becomes too great.
My ricing days are long gone. Now I just roll with the defaults and adjust the key bindings since my muscle memory has already hardened into diamonds.
…but I actually like GNOME!
There are quite a few customization options for it too.
Gnome is customizable tho. Just not as much as kde:‘ :)

Gnome is easily the least customizable DE in the entire Linux ecosystem.
And I’m sure their devs are hard at work coming up with ways to make it even less customizable in the future.

This is what gnome devs talking about theming sound like
I prefer hype land myself but can live with ideas unlike gnome
Cinnamon best DE
