KDE or GNOME?

[gymophett]

I know this has probably been asked I don't know how many times, but I'm about to put KDE on my Ubuntu desktop. It looks amazing from what I've seen. I love it. So what do you like better?

OK...true...Gnome...KDE seems to be missing a lot last time I tried it (on OpenSUSE)

[kaibob]

I tried both and preferred gnome. I guess KDE was too much like Windows.

[Hallvor]

Kde.

[pol666]

I vote KDE... just has 4 votes

[fuzzyk.k]

gnome, i think its more user friendly and feel its more responsive

[Kevbert]

I can't wait for the new Jaunty to be released with KDE4.2. Until Jaunty came out it was definitely Gnome, but the new 4.2 is awesome (and not a buggy as it was in the past).

[dragos240]

I love GNOME. It owns!

KDE

Cleaner, better apps, more advanced, more configurability.

I used GNOME for two years before switching to KDE. Recently tried to go back, can't do it. Also, for the GNOME fans, trying compiling it. I refer to this process as "the aneurysm."

openbox

[samwyse]

Kde 3.5

[C!oud]

Lately I've been utterly repulsed by Gnome so I've switched over full time KDE. Of course AwesomeWM is much better than both of them though ;)

[SunnyRabbiera]

For me Gnome, KDE 4.2 is better then KDE 4.1 but it still feels unfinished.

[OutOfReach]

KDE
everything feels so 'right'. Nothing is broken, everything works.
I am happier with KDE than I was with GNOME.

[agim]

love kde 4.2. I really like where kde 4 is headed.

[Tmi]

I prefer Gnome of the two, allthough I can't say I've give KDE much of a chance for a long time. A lot has probably changed since I used it.

Been using fluxbox for the past month. It might look and feel a bit more "boring" than a full DE, but it makes up for it in speed.

[Sand & Mercury]

Been a Gnome user over the last year and switched over to KDE on a whim. Not going back.

[Orlsend]

I Like Gnome better than KDE, thoug I haven't used as much only in xandros.

[Pogeymanz]

I prefer Gnome + Compiz or Openbox.

But pure KDE >> pure Gnome

The main thing for me is window management, and Kwin is way better than Metacity in my experience.

I usually just use Openbox, because it's an awesome WM.

[will1911a1]

I don't care for either of them.

I use Openbox now and have used and enjoyed Fluxbox and Xfce in the past.

gnome, installed kubuntu at a friend (right when 4.2 was released) and the panels crashed and disappeared after a few minutes, after reboot they was clean, but they crashed after not long.

I installed ubuntu for him =P
My computer is not good enough for kubuntu...

[mamamia88]

gnome tried kde and got annoyed by the jumpy thing when i clicked an icon

until then, gnome- 4.1 is too buggy

I like KDE better than GNOME. Bespin Elegant > All the GTK themes I've tried :D.
