  1. Ok but can I please change the default drag nd drop behavior in dolphin k thnx

    Edit: I donโ€™t want it to ask me. Just move the file! If I wanted to copy and paste it or create a link I would right click on it!

  2. I thought I was the only one setting up plasma to mimic Gnome style workflows. It always feels silly… why not just use Gnome? Well, even though Plasma is a bit jankier, I like that I don't have to "Extend" it to make the changes that interest me. I like having different wallpapers on my monitors, taskbar applets, a floating panel, and activities. I can get Gnome to function this way too, but it is heavily extended at that point and things break after a while and you have to find new extensions and live with the knowledge that your desktop is user-modded. I also like that KDE is gaming-mindful and openly supports the gaming use-case.

  3. Plasma's system settings are a mess compared to other desktops, even Windows 10's and 11's .
    As much as I enjoy using that desktop a new to me bug that curses Dolphin to fill up all swap on my machines as of late until they crash (which might as well be an openSuSE Tumbleweed related issue), I always have to look for certain settings I'd expect elsewhere because sometimes things hide beneath one place and in later releases of Plasma in another.
    Still not sold on the Wayland first vision either since I still have software in use which only functions properly using X but as long as some distro keeps the Xorg session around (yes, Fedora, you died to me without ever being an option in the first place), I am relaxed about the upcoming release of Plasma 6.

  4. I love the customisation of KDE, maybe I'm old now, but apparently I now prefer not to customize my DE.

    I've been using Fedora for the last year and running vanilla Gnome has reignited my enthusiasm for Linux as a desktop environment.

    I've been using MacOS for work for the last 6 years, Windows for gaming/personal things but have, for the last year, seen Gnome as the main environment I spend my time on – for work and play.

    The only times I boot into my Windows partition is to

    1) fill out a PDF form
    2) play certain specific games
    3) VR experiences
    4) the file manager is superior on Windows so anything involving a lot of file management I do from Windows

    Linux is still a bit janky but being bombarded with Gnome updates since 4x makes me feel excited as I see the project progress.

    I'm starting to get close to recommending Linux as a daily driver for non enthusiasts – though I normally recommend KDE for people who come from a Windows background given Gnome can be jarring for people familiar with Windows

    The good thing about Gnome is I think it has great potential to be a zero config DE that is consistent – making it a potential great entry point for newcomers to Linux.

  5. the theme downloading should be in discover – something about downloading stuff from the settings app feels insecure, clunky, and just asking for technical debt.

  6. I like KDE but they do make some weird ux design. My go to way to explain what bothers me with KDE ux design is changing the background on the desktop, sddm and the lock screen. The first time I changed background I thought it was broken because sometimes sddm showed me my new background and sometimes it didn't it took me a few frustrating weeks to figure out that there was a lock screen separate of sddm. I don't know the solution to these problems but to ME it just plain confusing.

  7. You guys are awesome, both of you!

    I love Plasma and use it since day one. I hated Plasma 4, loved Plasma 3. 5 is great, I truly hope 6 will be good …

  8. Budgie (that uses a lot of gnome stuff) feels more complete than gnome. It just so happens that Budgie out of the box is pretty close to the way my Plasma setup is. I had no idea there was a grid view in Plasma, lol.
