I haven't used gnome since I switched about a year ago.
Still love the gnome project and look forward to seeing how it evolves.

The one thing that KDE has over Gnome are functional colour themes. I really love to have a pink adwaita throughout all apps.
The other is giving a fuck about users and not only about their vision.
And I know it is their project and they can do whatever they want but it's my opinion and I dont like it.
Really living up to your name
Agreed it's nice to have everything match pretty easily
And much better gaming specs such as VRR, near complete HDR capabilities, ... Multi monitors are better supported, more customization (albeit it's harder to configure and get to the point you want sometimes).
It's not just color variants of the main interface 😇
I'm thinking about switching as well for those reasons but I'm disappointed on the NixOS support of KDE. Gnome is configurable through dconf at least for a kinda NixOS way.
Link to wallpaper?
It's a video using Smart Video Wallpaper
Here is the plugin: https://store.kde.org/p/1316299/

It's looks nice. I think you will enjoy KDE, we don't have to worry about extensions compatibility when upgrading to a new version of Gnome.
So far it has been nice. Though I have nearly broke the GUI because the customization is so deep. I enjoy that aspect but it can be frustrating and I can see that being bad for someone who doesn't know what they are doing.
edit: also thanks for saying it looks nice I spent way too much time putting it together
I see a lot of desktop posts and everyone seems to include that shell output showing specs. What command is that?
Some kind of fetch utility. Usually neofetch.
neofetch
What theme is that?
The global theme is just called Kubuntu but I heavily customized it with other themes and widgets.
How'd you make it red and black?
In the system settings under Appearance > Colors I edited a color scheme. The base color scheme I'm using is KvDarkRed.
I'm missing the rage over the switch. I like GNOME.
You did wrong :)
