    I absolutely love GNOME but had to switch recently due to hardware and software quirks. My primary computer is a Steam Deck and with valve primarily testing their things with KDE and the ability to launch into the Deck mode there was a lot of bugs and quirks happening with GNOME that I got tired of troubleshooting and patch in config files for all the time.

    Switching back to KDE, sure I get a better overview of things but I love Adwaita and the GNOME Intuitivity of the UI. Things I needed was there and presented in a very nice non-distracting way. The clean look and the added margins around elements giving a comfortable view of what’s necessary is extremely nice to me, all while the rest of the stuff isn’t distracting me with buttons and gizmos everywhere. I hope I can one day switch back but the added niceties of HDR and better KDE Connect support that isn’t half broken is also quite nice. Loose a little, win a little.

    I don’t really have social circles that show of Linux elitism. While on public spaces and have the time and energy I try to help out as best I can in a respectful manner and make sure not to get frustrated or annoyed at peoples need to learn things. While I haven’t encountered the elitism myself I can obviously see why it would be extremely off putting to encounter it as a new user and it saddens me a bit to hear about it.

    I have a few local friends who wishes to give Linux a go now and decided to hook them up with containerbased systems, in this case since they play video games I chose to give Bazite a go for them specifically for the reason that ruining it with modifying installed packages is going to be harder. I don’t mind helping them out myself however and have found the bazzite community pretty forgiving as well luckily.
