Of course you're allowed to have preferences and talk about it. I encourage you to do so, I love talking about this stuff and I love seeing people do the same.
But it's really tiring when the conversation, 100% of the time devolves to KDE users hating on Gnome for zero reason. As if there's only space for one DE and having a choice in the matter is wrong.
If you don't like Gnome, just don't use it. And try to accept that just because you don't like it doesn't mean it's wrong.
Trying to equate Windows being a default with Gnome being a default is crazy and you know it. I'm not even going to bother explaining why, it should be so obvious.
KDE is the default in plenty of situations too. It doesn't mean it's forced either.
I also never said you should be homeless or uneducated. Please don't lie. All I said was that you aren't forced to use Gnome. Because you aren't. You're lying there.
Nobody is forcing you to use Gnome.
It's interesting how I never said anything inherently bad about GNOME or good about KDE. I understand the meme is tiring for you and the rest I'll agree to disagree on. I'm aware open source software is not forcing anything for anyone.
Lastly I'm not lying, it's hyperbole. I'm just using an extreme example to point out how you're stonewalling any response given to you with similar bs.
You remarking that Microsoft must have hired Gnome devs was clearly meant as an insult. Don't play dumb.
You didn't come onto a submission about MS doing something shitty and say "Microsoft must have hired Gnome devs" as a compliment.
Gnome wasn't even mentioned, you just shoehorned it in because you wanted to be one of the weird subset of KDE users that get angry that Gnome exists, for some reason.
And again, it didn't make sense anyway. Gnome is nothing like Windows, it's KDE and Cinnamon that are Windows UX clones.
I don't even use KDE but go off king. You must be a GNOME dev or something lmao
Mmhmmm k
Good reply by the way. You really addressed the points lmao. Just a whiney loser who gets butthurt when people use different software/gets his fee fees hurt when devs don't want to make their project a Windows clone.
