      Compiz won over so many new users back then. Wobbly windows and desktop cubes may not have been super practical, but they sure looked impressive.

        The amount of times I’ve tabbed in and out of WoW in front of my friends just to flex that not only it doesn’t crash, but it’s fancy too. Or just give the game a little shake and wobble to mess around while it’s loading.

      I searched trans in KDE widget store (should show transparent panel), after installed add it to the panel and click on it while in editor mode (it’s sometimes reset to default panel after restart)

    Yes, my EOS/KDE brother/sister/enby

    Switched from Windows about a year ago, and have felt zero need to even try another distro or desktop environment.

    🤔 hating the windows UI and then going to KDE which is basically a more customizable windows UI seems…odd

          thanks for your work! I use it every day. And btw, I thought that moving from windows to plasma because the UI was boring was weird too(at least aesthetically).

            LOL, yeah, honestly with how hard I got ratioed it’s like I offended someone XD. I just found it an odd choice to complain about windows aesthetics and then be like “here’s my fancier windows” but to each their own. Anyway, glad you like the project and find it useful.

      This is only a 5 minutes setup and I can’t use tiled wm because I need my sanity, for the wallpaper I still haven’t found one XD

    Switched to Linux a year ago. Haven’t looked back since. I didn’t even know Windows was getting those creepy ass advertisements all over the operating system if it weren’t for the news here. Now I don’t want to go back more.

    I love and use Linux and while this looks better than the atrocity Microsoft is selling, let’s not fool ourselves. This is still ugly as hell.

      Have you seen what Microsoft has been up to with Win11? KDE is basically windows if it chose not to shove ads directly into the user’s eyeballs.
