That's what I like about Plasma. Unlike GNOME it is designed to be used by actual human beings who actually use computers to do actual work, not some imagined user and use case by some high-on-their-own-farts designer.

It is consequently very customizable so you can make it work better for how you work, instead of how some GNOME dev thinks you should work. It also didn't take 15 years of complaints to get thumbnails in Dolphin.

I have similar bad experince with GNOME. I do not even know why it is pushed as default on so many distros. KDE Plasma is much more close to what a usual user from Windows expexts and at the same time it is also comparable enough in functionality, which I can not say aboout GNOME which lacks many features, and mostly the same goes for most of the apps. And even when user would get used to switching to KDE Plasma it is customizable and flexible enough so a user can make it into something completely of his on. Which is also very painful in GNOME. So yeah I would have switched to Linux sooner if KDE Plasma was presented to me as the desktop instead of GNOME.

That's just your opinion. Some of us prefer Gnome and work with it every day without any issues.

There were a lot of inconsistencies and things missing (OOTB at least) that drove me away from KDE such as your system remembering your SSH key or being able to just connect to nextcloud and have it sync your files and calendar directly.

just because gnome isn’t for you doesn’t mean it’s bad

or maybe i exist in a designer’s imagination
