For people who already tried both, what's the reason you're sticking with GNOME or KDE as your desktop environment?

I think there's not too many technical reasons to choose one or the other lol, just look up a couple of videos on Youtube and that might be enough for you to decide for yourself

EDIT: damn I guess this comment was controversial for some reason lol

There's plenty of technical reasons. For instance, KDE implements the Wayland extension that allows for global push-to-talk in voice chat applications, while gnome doesn't.

Yeah but they're all pretty niche reasons

I guess push to talk is a pretty decent one, but my headset has it's own mute button so I never use push to talk
