    Always happy with more choice as it’s one of the main things that brought me to Linux many moons ago. Don’t like the way your DE does things? Well then swap it out, wholesale or otherwise. Personally, Gnome aligns very well with the way I like to use my computers but I also love to see what the KDE devs are doing with Plasma so I’m always interested in seeing another fresh take. My only real concern is that a whole DE is a heck of a lot of work and requires significant resources that will get stretched thinner and thinner with each new feature and option and I’d say they’d need a fair amount of community buy-in to keep up with it all long term in an ever changing PC market.
