From what I understand there was some technic reason behind it, but I hate it. Kde works on a laptop or desktop, but on a small touch screen it's horrid. Gnome is more intuitive for a small device like that, and would let you use it almost like a tablet. C'est la vie, but I do think I'm going to try bazzite at some point

I get it a bit. It's a device almost explicitly made for people who don't have a strong understanding of technology (and especially Linux). It prevents them from messing things up too much. It's luckily not locked down though so people who do know what they're doing can switch Distros.
