Been already running KitKat on my N7000 since a fortnight or so. HAH! (Actually, I'm running Paranoid Android, hence why I've already got KitKat. It is still in beta.)
On a more serious note, though, I can't wait to see my friends' faces turn to awe when CyanogenMod is released for their particular phone. It was a breath of fresh air when I did away with the Touchwiz interface (i.e. Samsung's interface and apps that replace the default ones). Stock Android is so much lighter! Plus, KitKat is definitely smoother than Android's previous versions, what with the lower RAM requirements.

Touchwiz is aweful despite having some cool stuff. when i bought my S3 i knew it was fast i saw it, but it could barely handle this samsung crap. well i went for custom rom best decision ever, the phone FLIES

That's nothing special, I've been running kitkat (cyanogenMod 11) for over a month on both my 600mhz single core ZTE Blade and my barnes and noble Nook HD(nearly 2 months), it really does make a huge difference on low powered devices like the Blade with slow CPU's and only 512mb RAM. 🙂

I also been running CM11 nightlys on my huawei Y300 and i´m loving it.

Was on a CM 11 nightly a few days ago. Unfortunately theres always some sort of deal-breaker that prevents me from sticking with the nightlies. Omni-Rom 4.4 looking good so far, may stick a bit longer with that.

I quite like touchwiz. Running stock samsung with some xposed module tweaks, custom roms are a well and good, but I don't want to have to deal with all the compromises and disadvantages that come with them.

Try Slimroms (SlimBean or SlimKAT) !!
If you want a light weight ROM Slim is the one to go for, it's minimal, fast and has great Dev support.
PS: dump Play Store and install Aptoide if you want freedom!! You'll thank me later..

IS there a version for S3 Mini i1890N

Same here. Using an S3 Stock with all the Samsung crap removed. The phone is simply fast when nothing from Samsung is installed.

I've been on stock Samsung ROMs with both SGS2 (Siyah Kernel) and Note 3. They work pretty well, and you haven't got compatibility issues. They improve TouchWiz with each release. I gave it a try, but returned to Nova Launcher pretty soon as it makes using the phone so much better.
Still, CM is a good option if you're on some older phone and want to try KitKat.

I been using it on my galaxy tab 2 p3110
I cant even go back to stock.
I never made a back up and I tried to download the newest stock but there was 2 releases. the first has wifi issues. and thats the one I found. but I cant find good server to download the fixed stock version.

Nope, that's nothing special. That's why I said that I wasn't being serious. 😉
Well, I ain't a big fan of Touchwiz, though I do find it a bit too colorful. The thing is, I have an older phone, and I wanted a smoother experience. Had I owned an S3, I don't think I would've bothered with custom ROMs that early.
You are right about compromises and disavantadges. Oftentimes, there's that lil' feature that's missing and you can't do much about it. For instance, my phone doesn't pick up some wifi networks anymore, so I have to enter everything manually or use WPS.
