A picture of Lara Croft in new Tomb Raider hand in hand with Lara Croft from the old Tomb raider Series. The new one labeled GNOME and the old one KDE.

I'm sure you could make it look like whatever your head meat blob can come up with, but eventually you're five hours deep in a rabbit hole nobody has ever gone down and uncovering software bugs that god himself didn't know about, just trying to make the damn thing usable.

On GNOME, I don't have to worry about any of that - the OOTB experience is just fine. For anyone.

I meant just changing the icon pack and panel theme which is not that difficult and some people may be fine with the default. Not saying gnome or kde are worse, just that xfce is not as bad as you think it is :)

I don't know, that was my experience on KDE. I got it to behave and look the way I wanted, but it was slow, buggy, and prone to crashing. I've never gone near anything "customizable" since.
