The real hard part of linux is decision. I'm indecisive af so deciding a distro and then a de took forever. I'm still going back and forth on gnome and plasma. My only issue with gnome is I cant seem to get my top bar centered (cant find extensions) and only in the middle which was easy on plasma.
I bounced between them both. Decided on Mint with Cinnamon because it just works without fuss.
cinnamon is like the perfect middle ground. it's not as painful to use as gnome, not as buggy as kde, but it still has a ton of customization.
I've been fighting kde on Kubuntu
fighting is a good way to describe it. i see why people like it, i just don't know how they can stand it. i would love it if it was as stable as the others. btw kubuntu lts uses a very old plasma version, it's probably going to be better if they ever finish updating it to 6.
Go for opensuse tw with plasma 😇then you have always the newest tested snapshot
