Not sure if this is the right comm to ask in, but I have been hearing people praise GNOME lately, which contradicts my prior experience with GNOME in live environments a few years ago.

I'd like to ask, what is the appeal of this DE compared to KDE?

    it's intentionally restrictive on the surface because it helps alleviate the anxiety of people who have only used windows or mac before.

    i think of gnome as the gateway drug of the foss world; if they like it enough, they'll want more.
