My prediction is that Gnome is gonna leave KDE in the dust.

GTK 4 along with Gnome’s decision to limit customization is a massive step forward IMO.

Gnome will be able to build a consistent and stable desktop and developers building apps using GTK will not be bombarded with bugs caused by random user customizations, which are usually hard to reproduce, hard to debug, hard to fix, affect a small number of users, and are likely simply frustrating to deal with for devs.

But, maybe that’s not the right choice. Great thing about Linux is that if that’s the case Gnome will wither away and KDE (or other DEs) will quickly surpass it.

My bet is on Gnome however.
