I disliked KDE 3 & 4, however KDE 5 is great. Plasma Desktop is impressive and pleasant to use.

Yep. I’ve been a long time GNOME user and I switched to KDE Plasma when I upgraded from Ubuntu 18.04 to 20.04. I don’t think I’m looking back.

In the early-2000s like many other people I was attracted to the Crystal[1] theme/icon pack, but it did not take long for it to start looking tacky to me. I feel like KDE never really abandoned this kind of look-and-feel until Plasma was released, which is very clean and pleasant. It has discarded cartoon-ish icons and has sharper lines and colours which are nicer to look at. I am a big fan!
