> Even GNOME and KDE are rife with bugs (depending on your hardware somewhat). Even though you'll have diehards that claim they haven't had any issues since X year. When I had KDE installed at the start of the year, I had bugs dealing with multiple monitors (apps wouldn't remember position if I had closed them on any monitor other than the left-most monitor). I had the UI crash repeatedly, issues transferring files using Dolphin (it would just simply hang on >500 files or if the files were large - it was fine if I used GNOME's file manager or the shell). I had slight issues getting wallpaper settings to stick. Shortcuts wouldn't always fire depending on how they were configured. The list goes on. I firmly believe that the folks who don't have an issue with KDE are just exhibiting forms of Stockholm syndrome or have worked around issues automatically (forgetting that they exist). When you see issues crop up when users are switching, and you aren't having those issues- maybe the issue is that you've created a mental model that effectively works around those issues without you realizing it. The solution isn't to blame the users having issues; rather, it's to take a hard look at what the problem is and realize maybe there is a real problem here.
