I tried switching to KDE yesterday (still in PopOS) and it's been a much better experience so far. I was able to customize a bunch of stuff including dock/global menu to be more macOS-like which is what I prefer, and the touchpad also seems to be much better integrated. I will look into Manjaro as well.

Thanks!




Hi, glad to hear you made the de change. I'm also on PopOS 20.04LTS and I would like to go to KDE. How did you install from terminal, the standard or the full version? Which is the best version? Thanks in advance for your help.


Awesome to hear you made the leap! I think KDE works wonderful on Pop_OS since Pop is mostly just a few gnome tweaks here and there on top of Ubuntu.

FYI I only am trying out Manjaro just because I wanted an Arch experience and for my gaming build I thought it might fair a bit better since the Steam Deck is built against it. I think Ubuntu is still a perfectly great solution.


What I enjoy most about KDE is the need NOT to install extensions!

Do it your way vs Gnome "here's what we think matters".
