I quite like KDE 5.17 in Q4.1, for the reasons you mention. :) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

I run KDE in 4.0, and find it greatly enhances the Qubes experience. Menus are easily customisable, it's simple to force separation of qubes in different domains on to separate Activities, ease of creating custom launcher shortcuts, etc etc. Far better than Xfce for Qubes, and in my experience it just works. And this is on x220 and x230 machines of relatively low spec.
