What makes Linux appealing to me is the extent of customizability, but I didn't find many answers when looking up with desktop environment is them most customizable. Some say KDE is most customizable than say, Gnome, but doesn't Gnome support CSS customization while KDE doesn't?

Subjective. If you're talking about functionality, then GNOME wins. If you're talking about UI, then KDE might have the upper hand.

If you want to fundamentally change the way something operates, then it's neither of those.

If you don't mind me asking, what makes gnome more adaptable in terms of functionality than KDE?

Gnome is very functional, it's just meant to function one very specific way.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
