    Overrated, I get

    But janky? While it isn’t my DE most of the time, I’ve never had any issues.

    What kind of jank is going on that I’m missing, so I don’t use it where said jank would shank my flank.

      really? everything always acts weird and breaks on me, every time I’ve used it for 10+ years. it’s gorgeous but unusable in my book, and has been for a long time. it’s disappointing really, checking to see if KDE doesn’t suck yet and then sticking with it for a month plus because i really want it to work has practically become a form of self-harm for me. i always ditch it because the jank is un-ignorable no matter how hard i try.

      ITT: OP shits on popular project, refuses to elaborate, gets flustered about lack of agreement.

      “Fanboys”

        ITT op posts a meme to make light of their frustration and a bunch of neckbeards take it super fucking personally that it’s not formatted like a support ticket

      You’re posting a thread where you complain about a desktop environment that’s obviously doing pretty well for itself without being specific about what the problem is, so yeah, people are going to contradict you with their real experiences.

      What bugs you encounter is going to vary based on what you want to do, exact version, etc.

      That KDE is as popular as it is, already means that despite your experience, it can be and is used daily by tons of people. To the point that your stance of “it’s unusable” can’t possibly be all there is to it.

      You walked in holding your personal experience above everyone else’s, as if god just handed you another five commandments.

      And you expected people to worship your “obviously correct” anecdotal view?

          “Go touch grass” is your best comeback?

          My problem isn’t with you shitting on something I like.

          It’s you placing your own opinion on a pedestal, then getting salty when the rest of us pick it up and set it back down on the same level as everyone else’s.

              Hey, you’re the one refusing to budge against an entire thread telling you your take is bad.

              You’re a sample size of one, just one other person having a good experience with KDE reduces the validity of your stance by half…

              And yet.

                and yet it drives you mad to no end that someone doesn’t like your favorite DE and “idk bro it works fine for me skill issue git gud son” doesn’t change their mind. please continue entertaining me for free thusly.

                actually, why would you expect someone to change their opinion based on how a bunch of nerds talk down to them for speaking their experience?

                  Ok, now you’re just trying to get a rise out of me. And assuming you’re succeeding, as if you can read tone of voice and facial expression in online comments.

                  This is juvenile. Grow up. I will not respond beyond this, in fact I am blocking you.

                  I don’t care what DE you use, or which ones you like. Nor did I claim your problems weren’t real, or merely skill-related.

                  But something most people do care about, is having a reasonable relationship with reality.

                  You put forward a view that doesn’t hold water. One which is purely anecdotal and not even close to the universal experience considering the popularity of what you claim to be “janky in every conceivable way”.

                  Everyone here poured water into the sieve you thought was a bowl, and for some reason you’re still trying to have a discussion about whether it flowed right through.

                  That still doesn’t mean anyone’s trying gaslight you. It simply means there’s more to it than your one personal experience, and that your anecdotal conclusions are therefore premature.
