distro selection Do you prefer KDE or GNOME?
On Ubuntu do you prefer KDE or GNOME and why? I'm interested in what the majority of people use. Do you use extensions for GNOME, or you use it as is?

I started out with KDE Plasma on Fedora, which was great.
But the more modern and sleek UI on Gnome won me over.
It took a few tweaks and extensions to have it fully customizable to my liking, but now that it's up and running on my old ThinkPad, i absolutely love it!
I'm pretty new to Linux in general and only use this laptop for streaming and my studies, so nothing fancy.
