This is a review of the Desktop Environment. It's constantly improving in most regards, although the introduction of the inferior portal interfaces for common functions in KDE software outside of Flatpak packages has been problematic.Additionally, Kirigami, whilst in beta stage at best, is being used for more software without the lack of animations and context menu inconsistency being remediated first.Despite this, KDE's software is some of the most advanced that a regular user is able to use. This is due to their sensible mantra of “Basic by default, [but] advanced when necessary.” KWrite versus Kate versus KDevelop are brilliant examples of this, as is Dolphin.
