I was lucky, never had problems with extensions but I use very few. I think they are very simple and allow to customize gnome.

Plasma customization are plenty but there are also a lot of bugs in those. Just changing themes global or icons (anything else than breeze) gave me some odd behavior last Fall when I used KDE in my work computer, and it’s not the first time I note bugs on DE behavior.

How can I deinstall this theme? I went on get new global theme and filtered installed themes but nothing shows up. I also went into /usr/share/plasma/look-feel but only see the breeze theme. The nordic theme is definitely still in the gui settings and available to choose but no way to deinsta…

Don’t get me wrong, I personally love plasma too (I just like trolling mildly plasma users especially @ricklinux who secretly loves gnome 😉), I also like using gnome, but my favorite are tiling wm. But plasma has more bugs and too many options I dont really need. Like does anyone use the `activities`. Also discover has been buggy forever, and the renderer and multi screen handling not yet up to par with gnome. To spill the beans 🫘

At the end of the day it only matters what the user likes personally. It’s all Linux. I am grateful to have both of the DE choices and I can switch to whatever I like when I like it 😉 I think I am going to switch to doom emacs, then it doesn’t matter anymore. 🤣
