I switched from Gnome to Plasma a little over a year ago after using Gnome for over a decade and it's better in every way. Reading your comment feels like I'm reading about the original KDE 4 release in 2008, not today. >The Plasma versions seemed to embody change-for-change's sake, and were flaky in non-reproducible ways I haven't noticed any major changes in the last year? Certainly nothing that was forced on me, whereas Gnome was always removing features I used, and the plugins would break with every update. >I just want something simple, not as fugly as TWM, that lets me use focus-follows-mouse and several "weird" personal muscle memory shortcuts around mouse buttons and meta keys for window management actions KDE does still let you do focus-follow-mouse and you can certainly add shortcuts, as you can in any other DE, in fact the dialogs to configure it are the same ones that are used in Gnome! >Things like the compositor crashing, startup scripts not running in a reproducible way, weird behavior around multiple monitors and the dock sticking to the wrong edges etc. Are you reporting these bugs? I cannot say that I have experienced these problems on any of my KDE machines and my friends that use KDE haven't complained about these problems either >At first, I thought it was just me. Then I thought it was just FreeBSD, but every problem I've googled for (sddm most recently) has people from many different linux distros complaining about the same issues. I mean, I just run Ubuntu. Maybe it -is- you? Even if it was SDDM, it's not like you have to use SDDM to use KDE -- I don't. IDK this post just seems like a lot of FUD to me.
