I’ve been running Linux Mint under XFCE for a while now and I am growing tired of it. I originally had cinnamon which I did not really like so I decided to go with XFCE and customize it to my liking.

However it’s been almost a year with that setup and I want to switch it up. I have never used Gnome before but I have a feeling it is the perfect DE for me.

I’ve heard a few stories of people trying to switch from Cinnamon to Gnome which was pretty unstable. However, does anyone know how going from XFCE to Gnome would be?

    I love Linux Mint, and always used cinnamon. I Loath the gnome experience, and XFCE has always struck me as too old feeling and sparse. Currently I use EndeavourOS with KDE Plasma and I couldn’t be happier.

    If you’d like to try out KDE but don’t want to move away from a more stable experience to an Arch based distro, I can recommend MX Linux. It’s based on Debian stable instead of Ubuntu, and has a KDE plasma spin.
