Overengineered by Germans
, over-complex UI and unstable (I blame the C++). Little vision except "similar to Windows but with more options".
Originally, Qt (the GUI library KDE uses) was proprietary and it still (I think) is corporate and not community-run, though it is now free software and has been for a long while. The people who started the project apparently didn't care much about that, though I guess some people put in significant effort later to convince whatever corporate entity was in charge of Qt at the time (I think Trolltech) to release under dual LGPL/proprietary license. Gnome was basically started as a fully free software alternative to KDE.
Otherwise it's fine, definitely has a target audience who love that shit, and it also doesn't deserve being called KKKDE.
This is all literally true (except that the toolkit isn’t proprietary any more) but the alternative is gnome so it doesn’t really matter.
