Kde is so bloat there's no chance gamers with optimization in mind will choose it.
I've been using it for a long time. I've personally found that there is essentially no impact on gaming performance–or if there is, it's so slight that it's totally negligible on midrange hardware, especially with feral gamemode. It might be more impactful on low spec PCs, I would assume, but I'm not sure of that. In my case, it's plenty lightweight and offers lots of customizability.
Can confirm. Used it early on (around Suse 7.3) and it took ages to compile and was bloated and buggy as heck. I switched to WindowMaker and never really looked back. Recently gave it a whirl on steamdeck and was pretty shocked at how polished and nice it is. If you haven’t given it a fair shake recently, you might be surprised.
Plasma is more lightweight than GNOME in terms of resource usage, so… (I use a tiling window manager, btw)
I used to feel that way as well, but things have changed and improved quite a bit.
Seems that way
