Depends on what you want from your desktop: There's a number of people who can't stand KDE because of lack of consistency in padding etc (I have to take their word for it because I cannot see such things). Often such people seem to enjoy using Macs and I defend that choice. Personally I prefer Linux or even Windows to Macs because of (drumroll) consistency. I want my keyboard to look mostly the same year in and year out. I want the layout to be roughly similar either I sit on my laptop keyboard or an external keyboard. I want modifier keys to work the same between apps. As a heavy multitasker I want my alt-tab to work the way it used when I learned it. As for why KDE/Linux instead of Windows I just really like it for some reason. On top of that I prefer the Linux ecosystem, the reduced build times I get when I compile, the snappier git etc etc.
