18 years ago? Holy crap I feel old. I remember how disruptive the very stable 3 to completely unstable 4 was. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

So disruptive that I haven't tried KDE since. Articles like this one might encourage me to give it another go. Is there a distribution that's considered the 'best' for a KDE environment or will any do? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

I most remember the performance issues with 4. That went from silky smooth to staggering along on my machine at the time. Same thing happened with Gnome, but to a much lesser degree. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

I remember seeing tons of mockups for how KDE 4 should look like. One was absolutely stunning but I can’t find it anymore. I remember a mostly flat theme with the idea that an app’s settings could be on the backside of a window. The dock was also brilliantly made. Oh gosh I wish I could find those old designs again. Unfortunately they didn’t go for it and went with tons of silvery gradients instead. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
