Why not both? Seriously, why shouldn’t I install both DEs so I can figure out what I like best or suit my mood?
Can’t we actually have it all in this scenario?
NO! You must pick a side and fight!
I do have both installed, Plasma seems better for gaming with performance and experimental features, while GNOME is very stable for work and, ironically, customizes better for my preferences.
EDIT: I use Arch BTW
in my experience, installing one breaks the other or at least changes it. it's a shitshow honestly
Having both at the same time may break shit. However you can choose a distro like Debian or Arch or any one that just gives you the default DE, customize it to your liking if needed, use it for a set amount of time (like two weeks, a month, whatever) or until you feel like you have a good grasp on it and if you like it, then install another one, uninstall the previous one and repeat until you tried all the DEs you wanted to try or found the one you like and just use that one
