From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Gnome is nice and minimalist. It'd be nice tto have built in extension by default to keep the dock always visible without having to activate it in top left corner (very unergonomic considering that the dock is at the bottom). It's unacceptable that you have to install a plugin to keep it on, as a beginner user I didn't even know to install extension manager and what extension to install.
KDE on the other hand is too busy and complicated for new users.
KDE looks basically like a Windows 10 desktop by default tho. That makes it easy for most people to get into it
i think that's the reason steam deck chose KDE as the default UI
