the main differences!!
(lemmy.world)
this is just a meme, I know that everyone is different and not all GNOME or KDE users are like that!!
This is more like desktop enviromment vs window manager users
Are there people that use window managers without using desktop environments? I thought that one is a component of the other.
Absolutely, there are a good few window managers designed to be standalone. I use AwesomeWM and i3 is very popular.
If you don't need a full desktop environment it's nice to have something that mostly stays out of the way.
I don't think you need to go full WM-onlyism to find yourself unable to relate to Gnome users. There are probably a handful of KDE users who still use Chrome, but we usually have some shame. We're not, like, trying to form HOAs in our neighborhoods like Gnome users are, probably.
