KDE is useable now that I can use AI to deal with the thousand cuts.

TBH I was rather shocked at how bad Kubuntu is out of the box:

* Hibernate is flaky

* The OS freezes from time to time requiring a hard reset

* Snaps completely bork the system - better to just uninstall snap

* Keyring is flaky. Often you get stuck into an "enter your password" endless loop.

The list goes on - and this is on a desktop PC! But fortunately an AI can sift through the arcane workaround lore in the various forums.

The bugs are annoying, but a helluva lot better than using Gnome!

I agree. KDE is pretty good these days.

That is a disingenuous statement.

Gnome is just as open source as KDE is and there are several forks for those who don't like the direction on Gnome. At no point does Gnome force ads on you, changes default apps under your butt, or takes a nap before opening a menu.

Sure, Gnome is not for everybody and you may dislike the direction it is taking, but saying it is like MS Windows, or the community project is like Microsoft is dishonest and insulting. I expect better behaviour from a fellow FOSS enthusiast.
