In next year I would like to switch to KDE. Would someone help me with what should be changed to not have a screen lock / automatic screen block?
Preferably screenshots
Thank you
That is the second thingy I do on a fresh KDE - first one is to “repair” doubleclick / single click. Whoever at KDE thought that would be a good idea must be a very special butterfly…

Sadly they’ve heard you, double-clicking is the default starting in Plasma 6, to accommodate benighted Windows users and ex-users.
Well this very special butterfly thinks single-click-to-open is much more rational than double-click.
One opens files and folders much more often than one selects them, and neither CTRL+click, dragging, or clicking the little + are particularly difficult when you do need to select stuff.
Trading a great increase in efficiency in frequent cases for a mild decrease in infrequent cases is a good trade. Huffman codes, but with clicks instead of bits

Single-clicker here. Double-click, too much wearing out the index finger

I agree with this, but only for Dolphin. Every other file manager I’ve tested is kinda stupid when it comes to single-click.
I love Nemo, but if I drag to select multiple files while single-click active, it will try to open all the files in individual windows/apps. 
And I think with Thunar drag-selecting is just not a thing if single-click is active. It will instead drag the file. 
PS: And yes I mean drag-selecting from an empty area. 
Single click vs double click is a strangely controversial topic.
That being said, the good/bad news is that the default is changing to double click with plasma 6.
Sometimes I get an impression that almost everything is a controversial topic in the Linuxland.
Strangely!
