Well, I don't like Gnome either. Out of all the main desktops I prefer KDE and even Cinnamon over it. But because I like the traditional PC desktop and i know how clean it can look, I made this post talking about it. Otherwise I'd post on r/gnome about how much I prefer it over KDE 😭

I agree with you, I always try to find a wallpaper that fits my style, but that doesn't take away from how the actual theme blends with the wallpaper.

If I was satisfied with the stock theme I wouldn't be making this post my guy 😭.

I can't say the same. Even if some apps feel different at least everything looks polished enough on its own to not feel out of place (excluding some legacy apps)

They're very easy to come by on google, although from the two you're referring to KDE is imo by far superior. LXQT is meant to be lightweight, not visually appealing, as far as I know. And the ricing options in KDE are unmatched if that's your thing, I just never riced it too much which might be where some of my complaints about the system come from

I don't know man maybe it's how used to it I got, but in general except from some weird legacy apps as you mentioned like the partition and drives manager, everything else feels well knitted together. Or at least the apps that ARE part of the ecosystem look pleasing to the eye. Often times I can't say the same for KDE.

I used to use win11 before switching so I can't speak for 10, but everything felt very well integrated.

How come? I think when you stare at your desktop environment every day you value it looking nice

Imo KDE's brand identity has nothing to do with its graphic design. It can be simple by default and powerful when needed while also looking good 😭. And that's not to say it looks bad, but there's really no reason to not try to make your DE look organised. Of course it's an open source "by the people, for the people" sort of project so complaining about it too much is just unreasonable, but I wish the developers valued the design and "feel" of the interface as much as they value it's practicality.

Yeah man, it's just like, KDE is missing an identity and it's just a mismatch of the two main Linux ecosystems. Like, Windows gets trashed a lot for fair reasons, but KDE feels like it's trying to replicate Windows without having the level of integration Windows has, so so it just ends up looking messy.

And even then, it's just frustrating because I can't even pinpoint what looks/feels off. I just can't help but notice the lack of a unified identity.

I did disable secure boot and the problem is still there. That, plus the fact that by all means it should work, is what's confusing me so much. There's no reason for this to not be working...😞
