All,

I have been using Ubuntu as one of my desktops for a while, but have always 
been irritated by how difficult it is to do customize things.
I was thinking of trying KDE, but do I have to re-install a new Kubuntu O/S to 
have KDE or is there a way to install the KDE desktop on my Ubuntu 20.04 
(Gnome) desktop?

Thanks
Peter

In the past there has been some discussion about which is better
GNOME or KDE?  I like Mint and I see it offers MATE (a fork of GNOME
2) or Cinnamon (a fork of GNOME 3).
Does it matter?

KDE is very, very customizable.  GNOME 3 is ... not.  There has been a 
remarkable amount of continuity in how KDE's applications have behaved (and 
looked, if you want) since KDE 2.  And no, not every application starts with a 
K these days.  Default file manager is dolphin not konqueror, default image 
viewer is gwenview not kview, default screenshot taker is spectacle not 
kscreenshot. So I prefer KDE but EPID and YMMV.
