  • Plasma is more similar to Windows
  • Plasma is more customizable
  • Plasma is just as beginner-friendly
  • Plasma has more features
  • Plasma is more actively developed
  • Plasma looks better

Don't get me wrong, Cinnamon is fine, but it gets recommended religiously to beginners for some reason. It just doesn't make sense, so I will keep repeating this, not least to keep alive the ancient linux tradition of Desktop wars.

Still, any Windows to Linux transition is a step forward and I support this, upvoted.

I'd say kde plasma is closest to windows 10 while Linux mints cinnamon covers vista, 7, 8.1 and 11

For me kde is closer to windows 8.1 10 and 11

i fully disagree with windows 11 with every part of my being(i came from 11)
