Going full Linux on laptop
I don't want to rice, I want decent feature ootb ( I run awesome on my dev VMs).
I just want comfiness, stability and Eye Candy.
I'm leaning towards Gnome 3 or KDE,
what are some nice ones?
>>54546721
Kubuntu or Fedora

Hows KDE nowadays? Still bloated and memory hog?
>>54546764
yes
>>54546721
KDE and Gnome are pretty nice ootb on Arch Linux.
>>54546855
Ok sticking with GNOME then
>>54546744
Install kubuntu and you'll become another one of the people who don't like KDE.
>>54546764
Uhhh.. It's KDE Plasma is fully featured. It's obviously heavier than a DE that has the only goal of being tiny. But it's much more functional and its qt apps are the best

Why not.. Xubuntu?
>>54546887
What KDE distro do you suggest the then?
>>54546764
Not any more of a memory hog than Gnome really, but buggier still.
Why would you complain about the "bloat", though?
The tons of features are the whole point of using KDE.

Need eye candy. XFCE is good, but MATE is better.
>>54546721
>i just want comfiness, stability and Eye Candy
sounds like you want XFCE
>>54546935
that's literally been my experience with xfce so far
>>54546721
Install Kubuntu.
KDE Plasma 5 looks awesome.
>>54546935
Ive tried xfce before
I dont like how it looks, it reminds me of a hacked out MATE
I recently switched from Windows to elementaryOS and it has worked out great so far!
With a few tweaks here and there (changing the File Manager mainly) its a blast to use.
>>54546721
Try Lubuntu.

>I dont like how it looks
Change the theme, you dolt
>it reminds me of a hacked out MATE
MATE is a fork of GNOME 2
Xfce has been around longer than that.
>>54546764
No
>>54546855
Shut up
>>54546906
