I don't know why the #MATEDesktop "clicks" so well for my brain and how much I enjoy it despite it being so quirky and much less easily/extensively customized vs. #KDE (I also loved #KDE4, despite so many people hating it; the key is to install the QtCurve Kwin and controls theme and the Diamond [something] Plasma theme and it will look amazing; glad there was a continuation like Trinity for #KDE3 last I checked, hope it's still going and I wonder if anyone will do one for #Plasma5).
