    Yep. Ugly, disjointed in appearance, etc. I set up Debian KDE for a family member moving from windows so it fits. I was impressed that KDE came far from what it was but it very much is like a bucket of bolts to me.

    Gnome in contrast is very put together. Yes, has some quirks but appearance wise is very curated IMO.
