Thankfully Gnome is ridiculously customisable. The native experience is shit, but installing a few extensions fixes all the issues I had with it at least.

nah gnome is great with ms+kb. as well as touch.
get outta here with this 2011 meme.
I prefer gnome. It feels like Linux to me. I don’t want a windows clone like every other DE

Every time I try kde I get pissed off that every time I make a settings change I have to hit apply as well. Gnome I just change the settings and close the window. Plus I can never figure out how to switch workspaces. I like super+scroll wheel or swiping on a laptop.

It's always wild to me how these hateposts climb to the top, when all the complaints can be boiled down to "I don't like the design choices"
Have you tried... Just not using it? No one's forcing you to use it. Have you tried using a different DE instead?

GNOME is more keyboard-focused than KDE. It just also happens to have much better touch support.
Get this meme to /linuxsucks where it belongs.
How do you even open the "Application" view on a touch device?
