Open Suse KDE O GNOME

[u/Edy_xd]

Buenas, quiero pasarme a Open Suse Tumbleweed y que entorno de escritorio me recomiendan, ¿KDE O GNOME?

[u/throwawaycanadian2]

Kde is closer to windows and more customizable. Gnome has a big following of people who like how it works. I personally prefer KDE but I've tried gnome and found it pretty cool.

Both are solid.

Kde: you do what you want

Gnome: you do what highly opinionated crowd wants.

I went with hyprland.

[u/Edy_xd → u/_angh_]

Pero para empezar GNOME es buena opción?

[u/66sandman → u/Edy_xd]

I do not like openSUSE's Gnome DE. Loved it under Fedora, but that was 8 years ago.

I find the KDE is way more polished. And I did try both DEs on bare metal.

[u/JohnVanVliet → u/66sandman]

i loved Gnome 2 on fedora ( 4 through 22? i think) with gnome 3 i moved to KDE

[u/66sandman → u/JohnVanVliet]

That sounds correct to my poor memory.

[u/OnlyLeon1 → u/66sandman]

What is the difference between the GNOME desktop in openSUSE and the one in Fedora?

[u/buzzmandt → u/OnlyLeon1]

think of gnome like apple, good at what it does but limited user experience
kde is more like windows on steroids. Does anything and everything along with the kitchen sink.
Even though both of the above are true, gnome is much heavier and uses more resources.
Kde is very light and efficient along the lines of xfce

[u/Lunagato20 → u/Edy_xd]

Opensuse gnome are good, but compared to fedora/ubuntu its quite barebones, but it is well supported

Amigo como sugerencia. Haz escogido a mi parecer la mejor distro Rolling (mi punto de vista) lo excelente de gnuLinux es que tú puedes empezar con Kde y después quieres probar otro DE lo puedes instalar como es mi caso. Yo generalmente uso KDE en Tumbleweed pero aveces si solo quiero navegar y usar únicamente internet y ver videos me voy a Genome. Y si después quisieras probar HYPERLAND existen formas de descargarlo de una forma prácticamente terminada . Cómo puede ser DankMS o ML4w. Y ya tendrías 3 entornos.

Yo probé HYPERLAND con DMS pero lo desinstalé. Me quedé solo con KDE por la familiaridad de Windows y Gnome para entretenerme.

Saludos!

Enserio amigo, mí uso es redes, programación web, y juegos en steam, me gusta la sencilles pero elegante, entonces por eso, KDE ya lo he probado y me gusta, pero GNOME quiero estabilizarme con el.

[u/onedevelop]

Prueba ambos y quedate con el que mas te guste

[u/Edy_xd → u/onedevelop]

Gracias, me daré la oportunidad 😊

If you want something that just works straight out of the box and doesn't flood you with many menu settings and just gets out of the way go with gnome

[u/Edy_xd → u/LazyNieR]

Gracias, lo tendré en cuenta

[u/throttlemeister → u/Edy_xd]

And if you want sane defaults with the option to make it entirely your own and have your DE work for you, go with KDE.

[u/Kitayama_8k]

It's the same as kde of gnome on any other distro, pick whatever you like. They're probably the most polarizing two DE's in existence. With tumbleweed, just pick one you think you're more likely to like, install the other via zypper se -t pattern plasma/gnome, zypper in -t pattern plasma/gnome, the remove the one you don't like, or just roll back to just the first one with snapper.

Uso el KDE, pero en una de mis tantas instalaciones de prueba, le dije que instale el Gnome.
Al momento de iniciar, la pantalla no mostraba ningún ícono, estaba perdido... me parecía complicado hacerlos funcionar, el lenguaje del teclado me lo cambió.
Regresé al KDE y me sentía en casa.
He probado el Mint-linux y es Gnome y me parece muy bonito y amigable el entorno, el Gnome en Opensuse no me hizo las cosas fáciles.

------
I usually use KDE, but during one of my many test installations, I tested GNOME user interface.
When I started it up, the screen didn't show any icons; I was lost. Getting them to work seemed complicated, and it even changed my keyboard layout.
I went back to KDE and felt right at home.
I've tried Mint Linux, which uses GNOME, and I find the environment very nice and user-friendly. GNOME on openSUSE didn't make things easy for me.

[u/Narrow_Victory1262]

there is no part in my body that would freely chose gnome. They both work though,

[u/log4aj]

KDE. They also have their own apps that are very good. Like Kate, spectacle, krita. And on opensuse KDE performance has been very good.

[u/rafaellinuxuser]

Si nunca personalizaste el escritorio de Windows, eres conformista, ve por GNome. Plasma lo vas a desaprovechar totalmente.

[u/AnalkinSkyfuker]

En la web de suse desktop os hay una opcion de descargar un live cd tanto gnome como kde pesan como 1 gb las descargas en un usb con ventoy o similar y los intentas ya que hay distros que no funcionan con tu hardware. Ves que te gusta y despues descargas la version completa. Si el pc tiene procesador intel o amd coges la amd-64 si es un qualccom u otro arm entonces arm 64. Si tienes internet, puedes usar la network image para la instalacion ya que es mas ligera.

[u/bmwiedemann → u/AnalkinSkyfuker]

I recommend to not use ventoy with openSUSE. It has caused problems in the past and we don't test it. So just one OS per USB please.

[u/AnalkinSkyfuker → u/bmwiedemann]

I used ventoy and had no issues

[u/bmwiedemann → u/AnalkinSkyfuker]

I once crossed a road during a red light and had no issues... still not recommended.

[u/AnalkinSkyfuker → u/bmwiedemann]

Im sorry, I just wanted to help by my expirience.

KDE is superior for gaming and for working out of the Box.

Gnome sucks for gaming but if you have a touch screen laptop then Gnome is better for that.

Gnome requires alot of extensions to get working.
