Which One?

I am going to switch from ubuntu to this. But before I download it, what
desktop is better? KDE or GNOME? I was thinking of KDE because I saw it
on google images, but I have never used it. Which one looks more
elegant?

What do you mean by elegant referring to a DE? In other words beauty is
in th …

Just install both and switch from one to the other for a few weeks and
then decide. lol!

Edit: you did not make much effort to search through this forum to find
the many times this is asked before, did you?

Edit 2: Nevertheless, WELCOME to this Forum and enjoy all the desktops
available.

Many thousands of years ago some people who lived on the north coast
of the Mediterranean said “In matters of taste there is no dispute”. Of
course the OS decisions then, were different to those today but the
underlying principle holds true.

That said my advice is when changing distro stay with the flavour you
know. Changing too much at once can lead to confusion ad
disappointment. D/L the DVD and then install both KDE and Gnome. Me I
tried Gnome, I keep trying gnome but I just don’t like it as much as
KDE.

Why not install both? You can select which one to use when you log in.
After you’ve played w/them both a while, you’ll have a better idea of
which you prefer.
