    Yeah, I was puzzled why Valve chose KDE to be the default desktop for a touchscreen device. Ultimately though I figured they just wanted a Linux desktop that would be more familiar to Windows users.

      I would bet the main reason is that KDE is way more willing to accept features and contributions outside of the typical use case than Gnome is.

      You guys are using the touchscreen? You know there’s a perfectly serviceable trackpad you can use, right?

        The trackpad is the only way to really use the desktop, but if the touchscreen was better KDE still wouldn’t allow a good touchscreen experience.
