I currently use KDE3, I never liked the direction KDE4 took. I did contemplate 
porting Trinity over to FreeBSD, but I never really had the time to do it, 
mainly because of how they are so scattered on how to build it (plus their build 
instructions are haphazard at best).

Even though the ports have expired, I'll probably continue to use KDE3 on my 
desktop.
