      Yes. Linux on desktop is by design modulable, you grab parts from plenty of different packages and put them together to make a distribution. Gnome and KDE are just packages, large ones with plenty of dependencies to be sure, but just packages. Here’s the gnome package on arch, do you see any driver?

            No, I’m not sincere with a person who completely ignored my point that Windows-alike DE doesn’t make Linux a viable alternative due to lack of software and hardware support. Stop lecturing people when nobody asked for a lecture.

              Such a weird take on that back and forth. I suppose you’re not used to saying Incorrect things, and having someone point that out.

              Reacting to that with sarcasm, to that extent? I hope you’re a teenager still figuring yourself out.

              Says the person who started the lecturing… And lectured incorrectly at that.

              No shit DE’s don’t bring drivers. But I bet your repo has a boatload of them.

              Talking about the DE in this context as if the DE for Windows “comes with drivers” is just factually incorrect. Compare like to like.
