Because it comes preinstalled and preconfigured by people with a least a minimum know-how in the usual consumer hardware store?
Well law should force these stores to offer other os preinstallation in these at least on demand. But law is unfortunatly big moneys and due to this microsofts bitch.

When I installed mint it was in English with swedish timestamps...
In debian I don't remember if it was the same t
| In KDE you can totally set region settings indepently from the language settings.
| >>255095 I know!
But I really didn't like plasma when I tried it some years back. It was hard to configure it to my liking.
| nothing is impossible in Linux. If u cant handle it switch back to Windows!
| >>254771 Gnome and kde are so fucked up after kde3.5 and gnome2 that I moved to xfce after so many years. On the other hand I do everything from terminal but it would be nice to have something that works

| Late KDE/plasma version 4 and earky version 5 had much annoying performance issue. But the current state of version 5 runs rocket fast and stable. KDE/Plasma is most fun if you have fresh packages like on Arch or KDE-Neon (which is ubuntuoid). Forget stuff like Kubuntu or Mint. In general forget stuff that promise to be "foolproof" because it makes literally fools of you. Most people that use windows don't really know what they're doing. They're like driving screws with a hammer.
| >>256426 cool I will give kde a try.
But now I'm debian stable since I'm working on yocto and the only thing I need is a terminal and a system that just works (mint couldn't compile my builds). That's why I moved to xfce (which has a lot of features missing but oh well...) . Even after all those years gnome2 has problems. And kde never felt right after 3.5.
| I disliked so much KDE after 3.5... Only about a month ago I tried the latest Plazma and it seemed decent. Saw it at a friend for about 3 minutes. One thing I was not able to figure out was: after creating a custom launcher on the desktop and mistakenly dragging it to the taskbar, how could I delete it from there? It felt weird.
As of DEs, I kind of like Cinnamon and MATE more than KDE Plazma or Gnome3. The later takes so much screen estate with its thick titlebars and big icons...
| I want to use 3 languages at once like a madman
| I'm trying LXQt right now because I want something lightweight.
But I would recommend everybody else to use xfce in my situation. LXQt still has some small things missing.
| >>259640
Have you tried openbox? It's a bit of work to set it all up but it's as lightweight as it gets.
| >>260315 Actually, LXQt is using Openbox.
LXQt plans to move on to the same windowmanager as in KDE Plasma in the future (when it doesn't depend on everything else in plasma anymore).
| >>259640
Try a window manager instead. I recommend window maker, fluxbox, or enlightenment. Wmaker for good menu/theme customization and applications, fluxbox for dynamic menus and themes, or enlightenment for excellent multimonitor workspace support, excellent customization options, but higher ram usage.

| Soo anoying that region and language are mixed up. Maybe I want everything in english but use swedish timestamps? Nope, no can do.
