As a KDE person who’s got an 'ol reliable Mint machine, I’m really glad Cinnamon has fans. I do wish certain customization was a little easier maybe? But it really does “just work” while looking pretty enough and not being overly obtuse.
I love my KDE and it kicks butt right now, but I don’t want to see everything converge on a single DE. I want them all to improve for the people who love them for their own reasons.
I used Cinnamon as a daily driver for ten years, I’ve still got Mint Cinnamon on my laptop, and Fedora KDE on my desktop.
KDE offers Wayland with all its bells and whistles ready to go, but Fedora is the second worst operating system I’ve ever operated. There’s a lot of shit that doesn’t run on it. .rpm is a complete joke compared to .apt, it’s just a shame that Ubuntu is such a joke compared to Fedora. Frankly this might be the perfect time in history to take a fire axe to everything more technologically advanced you own than a wall and go roll around in the mud.
Cinnamon >>> KDE
Imo.
KDE too clunky while cinnamon still customizable.
One little task that I tried on several DE. Try to change the scroll speed in the file explorer (dolphin for kde)
I had no DE except KDE where I just could go into the settings and change the value.
Afaik for cinnamon I need to recompile the whole thing.
