I feel the same. I like the minimal design oft GNOME and KDE plasma looks kind of too much like windows, which feels traumatic to me :D
But I will try plasma again soon with mint. I hope it will be more pleasant than I remember
KDE works out of the box but can be customised, unlike gnome, which if it’s not how you want to use it does not work out of the box and there’s nothing you can do about it

Unlike gnome, kde can be configured to look and act completely different so you should be fine
Some people don’t want to have to spend hours customizing their entire DE to make it usable for them when GNOME works just fine out of the box.

If you are choosing a DE to use out of the box with no customizing, you’re choosing plasma?
Gnome’s selling point isn’t its customizability, just as plasma’s selling point isn’t its OOTB experience.
Yes I’m choosing Plasma - it’s actually good out of the box and then can be made better!
