…I swear these takes mainly reveal the fact that conservatives like you just see women as objects and that you don’t care about genuine partnership.

It just works for me, and I prefer the look to that of KDE. Like, fair enough if it’s not your cup of tea, but your basic point here is “I don’t like the workflow and I highly value customisation”, and you then act like your subjective preferences are fact.
You can customise Gnome quite a lot, btw. I’m not even saying you should give it another shot, but please just don’t act like your personal preferences are objectively accurate.
They’re more portable, lighter and arguably perfect for media consumption on the go. Add a decent detachable keyboard and it’s all the computer quite a few people will ever need.
Just depends on how you use your pc.
I’m really excited about Linux tablets, but quite apprehensive about Purism as a company. Starlabs’ new tablet does also seem like a compelling package, luckily.
To be clear, I called that dude a conservative because of his username combined with his comment.
Leaving that aside, our patriarchal capitalist society (yeah yeah, buzzwords, I know) is very good as misdirecting frustration to mask the underlying dynamics; a lot of people, both men and women, are increasingly lonely because of societal problems. Decreased social cohesion because of different urban planning and the focus on the nuclear family for example, both of which are directly tied to capitalist ideology.
If you then get frustrated and blame that on feminism, that’s textbook conservative thought. A lot of people are misled into thinking these things (because misdirection of frustration is crucial to capitalism), even people who mostly aren’t conservative themselves. That’s just a product of the ubiquity of conservative thought.
Either way, I hope you can help your friend to escape that way of thinking. It’d be better for everyone.
