Doesn't SUSE have KDE by default?

I use it on FreeBSD myself. It's an amazing desktop. I don't like gnome at all. It uses too much screen space (huge touch style window decorations) and doesn't have enough customisation for me. But KDE is perfect.

OpenSUSE doesn’t have a default. SUSE uses and supports GNOME.
According to their own page KDE is the default desktop: https://en.opensuse.org/KDE

> Default Desktop

> Plasma Desktop from KDE is the default workspace on openSUSE.

Strangely enough, from their desktop FAQ: https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Desktop_FAQ

> openSUSE installer provides three officially supported desktop options. There is no default choice

Coming at this from another angle, their installer isn't super opinionated. The KDE radio button is at the top of the list on the desktop selection page.

Does that make it the default choice? I guess it does by some definition.
