@thatzacdavis Between and ? Kubuntu feels snappier on my old machine and looks fairly modern with good customization options. But Kubuntu (KDE) has some rough edges compared to Ubuntu. Some of the customization options can accidentally break the UI if not careful but I am fine with that.
The main reason for the switch to KDE is I wanted a simple modern desktop environment with but something lighter than especially because my hardware is a bit old

@dsoft @thatzacdavis A lightweight desktop for old hardware is xfce.

@plumeros @thatzacdavis True. But got much lighter these days compared to a few years ago. Not claiming it is lighter than but it is light enough for my machine. Also I like the functionality and look and feel of KDE. Ex: Apps and full system search at the fingertips, easy customization, etc.
I've used XFCE and in the past. Will consider those again when I feel KDE no longer works but I am glad we have so many options 😊
