@yesman @cm0002 Funny enough, I've disliked GNOME since 2,0. I loved GNOME 1,4's control panel, and was a big fan. With 2.0 and beyond, I felt like GNOME got simplified more than I liked. In due course, I drifted more and more toward KDE/PLASMA.

I also like KDE's Kontact for email and calendar, and have made extensive use of the Activities - like a guy with multiple tab management extensions in a browser. ๐Ÿ˜

It's all just personal preference at the end of the day.
