Is gnome claiming to be older than kde? 'cause it isn’t. Gnome was started because decades ago, the license for the qt library used by kde wasn’t quite open enough.

It was. I think I used CDE very briefly on some Sun workstations back around the kde 1.x times. But lowly undergrads mostly got ttys and not X terminals.

It’s been made by someone born after both Kde and Gnome is my take.

KDE Plasma. It works for me, and it has enough features so that I can adapt it to my workflow as my workflow changes.

Mind the version of the wiki you’re using. It follows git by default, but you’re most likely using 0.38.0.
