Just got a steam deck and immediately checked out the desktop mode, and I was somewhat surprised to see KDE and pacman as opposed to GNOME and apt, I have nothing against the former though a strong preference for the latter, anyone know why Volvo went in this direction?

    A coherent ecosystem…of blank windows with not enough functionality crammed into a hamburger menu made the way it is mostly for aesthetics. A workflow that doesn’t make sense to most people who are trained on PCs. A dev team who hate their users.

    No thanks.

      If you want this use KDE. I for one am very happy to use a desktop that doesn’t follow 30 year old design.

          This is an entirely irrelevant argument. Do you use a dial up modem? We can replace things sometimes.
