Whats are differences between KDE 3 and TDE?
KDE 3 is Frozen in time, where TDE has had updates to KDE 3
components?
Subtle visible evolution. Mostly it appears to have been adapting the unseen
undercarriage as required to keep on keeping on those features that made KDE3
great, such as systemd replacing sysvinit or upstart, and logind replacing
consolekit, in various distros. Most such things were necessary also in KDE3.
In openSUSE, KDE3 is not frozen in time. It just looks that way, for good reason.
What ain't broke don't need fixin.
The PC I'm composing this on has both Leap with KDE3 and Tumbleweed with TDE. I
use it with TW barely at all. I use TDE far more on other PCs, a roughly even
split among KDE3, TDE and Plasma5, among openSUSE, Fedora, Debian, Mageia and *buntu.
