We love to praise linux constantly and tell everyone to change to it (they should) but what are your biggest annoyances ?

Mine would be, installing software (made even more complex by flatpaks being added, among the 5 other ways there already were to install software) and probably wifi power management issues.

    For Ubuntu you just run sudo apt install kde-plasma-desktop. Presumably it’s the same for the derivative you’re using.

    After that gnome will still be there, and you just toggle between the two at login.

      yes i have used kdm and gdm in the past on systems. Im aware I could install it but I simply do not want to mess with my system more than necessary given its a minor concern. Its the same reason I use a distro that is out of box and based on lte ubuntu such that its behind it. I use it because I am up and running and going right after installation without making any changes much like windows which I replaced (actually better because of all the software it includes by default). Granted I made a few and even added compizconfig to get a bit of what I wanted which made me realize I should just add kde but again 100% don’t want to deal with any issues it might bring up. most things I have added are 100% not going to cause and issue like nettools, imagemagik, and screensavers. compizconfig was a bit of a risk and im not sure if I would have done it but I was pretty frustrated atm. Maybe if I get frustrated enough again I will pull the trigger on kde.
