I started using Linux distros as my main OS near the end of 2004. That would most likely be KDE’s K Desktop Environment 3.3.
At the time, I was always distro-hopping and moving between Gnome and KDE. But I always felt much more at home with KDE. And that continues today as I’ve been using KDE exclusively on my main rigs since around the KDE 4 to 5 transition in 2014.
I got bitten by the build your own os back in 1996 with a old laptop with only 4MB of ram and off course it was not enough ram to run X11 , even stripping my kernel and trying all tweak’s I had to remain in terminal… That was fun booting from various partitions and trying to get
Xwin running with no success
