Many said TDE would be dead within a year.
Now, it's gaining ground to the point, I think, that some are nervous.
And many swore new KDE will work with just few upgrades - it was 10y ago.
G. time flies by!

In the course of my several attempts to migrate from Debian to Devuan, and
maybe upgrade to either Stretch or Ascii, I discovered that the new KDE
Plasma completely deleted all my personal settings. Even after I reinstalled,
it took a while to get my KDE desktop looking and behaving right; which in
any case, is never very good.
I like to keep another desktop on my system, so that I can always boot up into
the other desktop, if I am having problems specific to TDE. I think LXDE
works better than KDE, but KDE has programs that are sometimes more
compatible with TDE.
Every time I use the new KDE Plasma, I get so frustrated that I want to break
something. The same goes for whenever I have to use other people's computers,
especially if they run Windoze or the rotten Apple; and it's even worse when
I have to use a public computer.
The only thing that worries me is that I am becoming my own island, which is
maybe not so good. I am thinking maybe of running a virtual box inside my
Linux machine, in which I can run Windoze or the rotten Apple or some other
Linux OS, just to keep up a little with changes that are going on "out
there".
Thank the Goddess for TDE! I believe I would have given up on computers
altogether, if not for Trinity.
