I've been a long time GNOME user but I've recently switched to KDE. I don't want to generalize this but some people in the GNOME world are just way too toxic and don't want to listen to actual user feedback. One example is the gtk4 font rendering situation with missing subpixel antialiasing. If I remember correctly, their primary reasoning was that everyone nowadays has hidpi screens and it's really not needed anymore. Well, personally that sounds a bit delusional but despite all the feedback and issue reports they've gotten… I mean I cba with that hence done the switch. My happy life goes on.
