I'm curious about trying KDE, but I'm not sure it's worth trying if I can't revert back to how it is now. How easy is it to remove KDE after you've installed the triskel package?

What about sudo apt-get autoremove?

Could you elaborate on this? I don't know anything about it.

If you're just looking to try out KDE, perhaps an easier way would be to install it in a virtual machine. That way, you could just delete the VM when you're done.

Why not simply copy and paste the list of packages after your
sudo apt-get install trisquel
?
Save it in a text file; if you don't like kde anymore, copy the content and do the following:
sudo apt-get remove insert-content-here

I'm not quite sure if this works but I don't know why not.
Much easier than using a virtual machine.

That does work. It is actually the same as grepping in the /var/log/apt/history.log* files what are the packages that were installed along with "triskel" (you wrote "trisquel" by mistake)... except that you make your own separate log.
