I love KDE and you can pry it from my cold dead hands.

That said, KDE+Wayland have not been stable for me across a variety of distros and hardware configs (responses are anywhere between "impossible" to poiting at another piece of software in the stack). Akonadi self-destructs every other week and is unrecoverable (only on Debian stable has is been 99% stable for me). Kmail devs have taken out a few features (such as letting you configure the reply button to reply to all by default) with neckbearded argumentation. Both these are a pity: I believe KDE PIM software is a hair shy from being the best and most versatile PIM software on Earth.

It's the best DE+apps I have ever used, but completely perfect it is of course not.

Baloo can be configured to not index file contents, which only a bad distro would default it to.
