I'm using KDE in Archlinux and somewhat like it, but Plasmashell gets unstable sometimes and some weird errors happen in trivial stuff like configuring the taskbar elements (and sometimes the "screensaver" when screen is locked "crashed" and appeared a message saying that I needed to put a command in console by switching to ctrl+alt+f2 for example...). I might need to investigate it. And I feel KDE is bloated, there are many stuff I would like to remove too but I also miss certain functionality that would be eliminated in the process. It seems I want the impossible: Extreme customizability, features, cool integrations... but lightweight and very robust. Kmail2 is unusable to me, I have TONS of emails (900K only in one account) that I want to save locally but no email client is able to deal with it. Empathy stuff rarely stuff as it should and even Telegram client needs to put new password each time (why?), plus the lack of AV because most of it is a layer over libpurple that lacks features like AV on most protocols. The indexing feature makes the system slow and it's suboptimal, I don't understand why all major DEs organize to create/use/improve one that not makes the system very slow and it works across many DEs :P
