While DEs often emulate the look of macOS or Windows, they always get the feel wrong. You can put a global menu bar, Dock, etc into KDE, but ultimately it still acts like KDE and nothing like macOS.

It's not like macOS or Windows is the pinnacle of UI. I'm on Fedora Silverblue, and it's so relaxing to not deal with the usual ['Yes', 'Not Now'] prompt on notifications. Or have your computer became suddenly unresponsive because of random scans you can't disable.

    It's not like kde is either. In windows I have never thought about carefully moving the cursor through start menu. In kde it's one wrong move and you're in a different section, cause in 25 or how many years they didn't figure out hover activation delay.

      Well, Windows 11 got rid of start menu. To get to it you have to click an obscure button. In Windows, you have to carefully think how you move the cursor at the edges of the window because Some Idiot thought is a good idea to make the window border 1 pixel wide. Even on (Q)UHD monitors.
