| freedquaker said: To keep it short, I have never been a fan of KDE. To me, again subjectively, it's a bloated resource hog with an ugly menu system and a dated file manager. I only liked the mini KDE versions that come with those like Slax etc. I do respect those who like it though as this is entirely my subjective taste. KDE, in any form, is nothing like the super idiotic Metro Interface. KDE is functional, visual, customizable and it adheres to the principles of its fans. |
Of Linux interfaces, I'm right now enjoying more Unity than the others, but that is basically because of extra screen space (something that Gnome 3 uses with that giant window decorations) and general simplicity. KDE is a different beast, I see it as trying to give the maximum of options at the same time, what leads to a nice customization but at some cost (cluttering mainly).
About file managers, I see Nautilus as better than Dolphin, because it does more and in a more user-friendly way. But that can change since the Gnome team is doing some terrible decisions right now (removing the split panel mode, removing the typing navigation).
