I use Plasma for a bit but instability, odd bugs, or visual inconsistency just becomes too much for me.
Gnome was a pain for a couple of weeks when I kept trying to use it like a Windows PC, but once the Gnome workflow “clicked” it just made so much more sense than the Win95 UX paradigm.
And it’s particularly annoying when kwin crashes, because it takes everything else down with it (that’s getting fixed in Plasma 6 though!)
5.27 is better to a ridiculous degree compared to how Plasma 4 and early Plasma 5 was, though. KDE is doing a lot of work to put the meme of their software being a buggy mess to bed.
I kind of have the opposite experience.
