Drew,
More information?? Desktop to do what? I find myself running
everything in a web browser and an email client (yeah, I still use
Thunderbird). Boring truth told. My home lab is consumed by servers
running Folding At Home for the benefit of my power provider.
I haven't even managed to upgrade my Debian 12 to 13...

Hello,
It's been a long time since I messed with Linux, specifically. I have
some more recent experience with BSD, but not recently enough to affect
my choices for a "modern" desktop. I have an older laptop I have decided
I want to install Debian on, mainly for the purposes of running ham
radio related software that won't run on MacOS, which is my main
desktop. I pulled live images for Gnome and KDE, and have verified that
everything on the laptop seems to work with the live image.
My real, burning question is, are there compelling reasons to choose
Gnome vs KDE, and is there something obvious I'm overlooking? I think
the last desktop I ran on BSD was XFCE, but at the time I think that was
specifically because it was fairly light weight and allowed easy virtual
desktop changing. It might have been 20 years ago (and my last linux
distro might have been Slackware) so I am confident things have changed.
Any advice or shortcuts to sorting out which might ultimately work best
for me would be appreciated.
Drew
