State of the KDE Union
Jul 20, 2009, 12:34 (5 Talkback[s])
"I don't think so. I just switched back to KDE, with 4.3. So far
it's liveable. It's not finished by any means. It's not even as
feature complete as GNOME. That, however won't be hard, given
GNOME's past of removing functionality every release.
"The fact is, we can't compete yet. I was infuriated by the loss
of some of the applications most dear to me, I coded religiously in
gedit, now replaced with vim and geany. I miss gnome-do, replaced
with the stock KDE launcher. gnome-terminal by konsole. Rhythmbox
by amaroK ( and then by mplayer. No offence to the amaroK guys, but
that latest release is a major regression ). Ubuntu One is a MAJOR
issue. I can't use it any more."
