I used the Fedora KDE "spin" for years and it's really fantastic. In fact I'm still running it on my previous laptop which I keep around at home for odd jobs and occasionally use for work when I can't be bothered to dig my new laptop out of my bag. The new machine has a 4K screen and as with many people I'm occasionally hooked up to 1080P external monitors. I found that Gnome handled mixed DPI setups slightly better so I'm using that these days but KDE is very polished and well worth a try. Once KDE sort out the mixed DPI situation I may even switch back.

> I found that Gnome handled mixed DPI setups slightly better Came here just to second this. This is especially true when using Wayland. Gnome is better here, especially if you have the luxury to * enable experimental fractional scaling of Gnome 3.26; * restrict yourself to properly ported GTK3-Applications. The situation with other applications is not as bright. While eg. Libreoffice looks good at first sight (crisp fonts under Wayland and fractional scaling enabled), Dialog boxes are not resizable and become unusable, as important information is missing.
