This has been my experience with KDE, Xfce, and Lxqt. It has been years since I tried Mate or Cinnamon but I'd put them in this category, though that might be a bit unfair. GNOME tosses all that away and has built, IMO, a remarkably better system, but it's quite different. I've been using GNOME nearly exclusively for nearly seven years and everything else seems archaic. About 18 months ago I tried the new Plasma 6 for a time on a laptop I have Arch installed and after several months replaced it with GNOME. There were just too many inconsistencies. GNOME isn't perfect, but it's quite consistent. - Nate -- "The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds. The pessimist fears this is true."
