KDE's Plasma hasn't changed the UI radically since the 4.0 release, and 6.0 will also not introduce any radical UI changes. It's settled down quite nicely, and most of the effort has gone into performance optimizations and polish.
This is not to detract from XFCE, which is a cool project with many strengths as well, and certainly deserving of enthusiastic users (doesn't matter which FOSS desktop you love, we all win).
- oblio 3y agoHas KDE fixed the inconsistent spacing in their default themes? In past eras every time I tried to use KDE the inconsistent spacing in the apps included with the desktop was jarring. I really, really wanted to like KDE as it's super powerful otherwise.
- sho_hn 3y agoThere's certainly always a lot of effort going into that direction. The KDE community also has a goals voting process that elects multi-year community-wide goals (each goal gets their own leadership, funded hackathons, budget, etc.), and "Consistency" was one of the more recent batches and is still ongoing: https://community.kde.org/Goals/Consistency https://community.kde.org/Goals/Consistency So I'd say it's worth checking back, and certainly the developers/contributors take your ask seriously enough to vote for it themselves.
