Not counting the Steam Deck, since KDE isn't actually turned on while you're running games.

Normally I'm a Gnome guy, but I'm building a tiny low power portable computer and wanting to keep resource utilization low, so I'm investigating other options.

Not trying to start an argument, just curious on your perspective. What makes gnome seem like windows? I really can't see it myself. For me KDE Neon feels pretty much the same as windows 10 but with more control and customization. Gnome feels kinda more like Android - everything hidden and big ol icons and doesn't use the whole nested window configuration system

It just seemed to me like the most familiar looking at the preview screenshots on the download page. This and the fact that cinnamon is the most supported by Mint out of the 3.
