I have read many conflicting things, like always. Just wondering if there’s a safe way to use several DE’s on one distro without messing up my damn computer lol I’ve tried it several times and it always messed things up. I’m currently brand new to fedora workstation 38 too btw. Thanks alot

    You probably have xdg-desktop-portal-kde installed and enabled. Try installing xdg-desktop-gnome and remove the KDE one and see if it makes a difference in launch times.

    Edit: I’d also reboot afterwards

      YOU ARE A GENIUS!

      Thank you! xdg-desktop-portal-gnome was already installed but removing xdg-desktop-portal-kde did the trick!
