Always these types of improvements at the design level in something as graphic as desktop environments are appreciated.

However, if you are looking for a lightweight and powerful desktop environment, the best option you already know is KDE Plasma, yes, KDE Plasma is lightweight, as you hear it. Some still do not want to believe it and criticize this, but with the latest updates the KDE developers have done an arduous task to make it much lighter than it was before and now it can be compared in RAM consumption to most desktop environments. light, but with the power and characteristics of before ...

Both GNOME and KDE Plasma are the two most used desktops today, although some forks have emerged from these and others made from scratch that are also popular. And it is a matter of taste to choose one or the other if the technical aspects you don't care so much. That said, back to the news again, that new look for the icons is not the only thing that has changed far from it, the developers have made much more progress.

    What did you talk about how good Plasma is in an article about the release of Gnome 3.32? And as far as I know, Gnome 3.32 will be released on March 13th.

    KDE plasma fast ?? faster than XFCE ?? I am testing the new KDE plasma on a partition of my disk and it is not faster than XFCE, I do not know what you are based on, but in practice, I do not see that it is faster than XFCE. I have a pc with an i3 and 4 gb of ram and a 500 gb disk.

    What kind of news is this? It does not contribute anything and to top it off he starts talking about something else saying that it is better. Where did you get this guy from?

    Gnome that enjoyed having the one considered by many the best desktop environment ventured to try to create a new concept that has turned out to be a total fiasco (disgust) ... and they do not rectify they are still stubborn is their mistake ... so many left this environment looking for much more alternatives practical and light. Rectifying is wise, but they don't. I understand all these users who have turned their backs on it, people who are not the typical geek where the use of the computer does not go beyond tuning the desktop and spending the day measuring how long it takes to start up and the consumption when you open two web pages with the browser, but people who work with the computer, who design, program, etc ... then there you need something practical and if it is light, better ... features that today gnome totally lacks.

    In the beginning, the traditional Gnome 2 was very fast, simple and traditional according to the design of the desks with menus - I continue with Mate-.
    Gnome 3, despite being more visual and with search fields, is very slow and consumes many resources!
    KDE has always been very clumsy, but it has the best programs.

    I totally agree with several of the users who have complained with good reason, when they rebuke that this article is really to forget (looking for a more condescending and less insulting definition for its author).

    Without being a Gnome fan, I entered looking for technical information about news or advances in this desktop environment, and what I find is a puff of bad taste without serious content, totally irresponsible and subjective because the only thing it generates is animosity towards its author, feeding at that time of clowns who continue to insist on attacking each other while being on the same side, as if it were political parties or soccer.

    The two types of libraries GTK and Qt are two sides of the same coin: GNU / Linux and for color tastes, or both.

    What a lack of professionalism! You're talking about Gnome after (unnecessarily) KDE. Who made this article, a KDE fanatic kid? In any case, it would have been better to have an article on a comparison of Gnome and KDE, which is a very old, controversial and boring topic.
