I prefer gnome. It feels like Linux to me. I don’t want a windows clone like every other DE
My KDE setup is neither like Windows nor like MacOS.
Stock options are often laid out similarly to Windows to make transition smoother. But many of them are powerful enough to make the UI look radically different according to your needs.

Not on my PC rn, but here's the previous iteration, arguably in between two styles (and also with broken font size in one place, which was fixed later). I like how Mac organizes panels on the top, but I hate the dock panel. The desktop also has KRunner activate near the screen center whenever I type when I'm focused in desktop, so that I could find any apps or perform simple actions super quickly. Still, I decided to not have it open when it's not running, as I prefer minimalism.
Also, here is a strikingly unique but lovely desktop taken from r/unixporn
GNOME feels like Mac. I prefer i3wm because it actually feels like Linux (I use Arch btw).
Honestly that looks worse when I search it from the fedora side. May I see your desktop?
I don't use i3wm. It's a joke about what you said about GNOME "feeling like linux" not really making much sense.
Gnome was standard to my fedora distribution so to be it does feel like Linux. Similar to whatever Ubuntu runs but better.
I get you though, there is nothing standard. It is how I feel though ;)
Gnome is so much better than Mac OS but the similarity are fairly limited.
lol no, it's not. MacOS has a system tray, sensible window management and good default touchpad gestures.
