I can assure you, releatively speaking, support for KDE is _not_
fanatical. Possibly the opposite.
Oh, come on now.
I LOVE KDE!
When I was first exposed to Linux in
RH9 I found that KDE did not work consistently
and that finding was quite possibly right. I started with RH8.0 +6
Gnome myself.
Geez...I´ve been using KDE since RH 7.1, and I´ve never had a problem
with it at all.
and chose to use GNome.
Recently I have started to use core 5. KDE may work well in the
current distro but I have become more familiar with GNome; apart from a
personal preference I can see no technical reason to consider one better
than the other.
That, my friend, is because you have not used both.
Honestly, I don´t have the technical knowledge to even assess that.
I just know that I prefer a large number of KDE´s apps (sure, you could
run them in gnome, but why?), and I enjoy the
greater configurability that KDE affords me. So, apart from the large
number of really, really cool KDE apps,
it´s aesthetic as much as anything else on my part.
I assume by the strong support from many there may be a
technical reason to support KDE over GNome, what are they.
I don't think you will see anyone answering this question. At least
not in this thread. This is just asking for a flame war.
Hey...make .rpms, not war...
