Dolphinās URL navigator now lives in its toolbar! (Felix Ernst, Dolphin 20.12):
YAY!
ā¦and itās fair share of bugs this time. My KDE load/splash page was changed, and lock screen is just black w/o image background.
Easy to fix, but those bug should have been spotted before release.
I found I do not need the flash of a Plasma. I found a clean workspace works better. I have no fancy effects, I have no window borders or titles. I have a bare desktop with no bars, but a buttload of keyboard shortcuts. When I boot, I see my wallpaper. Nothing else. Just a wallpaper, and I could not be happier.
To each his own. I hope you have a blast with Plasma!
ā¦and all off a sudden, my desktop feels like bling-orama!
Awesome reply. I feel the need to post my desktop, bit it is just a wallpaper (taken from another member of the forum, I gave credit there), bit it woulf just be that wallpaperā¦ So yeahā¦ Yours is a lotta bling!
Remind meāwhat is that icon pack you are using? Itās perfectly suited to your desktop.
Simply circles.
I am using KDE apps in XFCE now
And all problems are gone .
No screen flickering when recording , dolphin is more responsive now , Konsole and Okular works great and gwenview is superb .
Edit : Forgot to mention Krename . Itās much faster than Bulk Rename
in thunar . When renaming a few hundred files it it slows down . Literally one file per second . 600 files would take 10 minutes . But krename did it in 6 seconds with more options
If you ever try KDE again and if you have a intel graphics,
in the future you could try to remove the xf86-video-intel package.
I had flickering with KDE too, especially with recording, but after removing that package every problem was gone.
I will try that soon , maybe tomorrow . If that solves rendering issues in firefox too then I will use Plasma forever
Removed that package and all the flickering is gone . @nigelwarning thanks man .
Not anymore
Now
Forever Plasma
LMAO!! if you say so ā¦ you jump DE more i eat dinner
OK, Iāve also been on the road with KDE for 2 days. But I donāt know yet if I will stay with it. My fallback is still GNOME. Actually I wanted to wait until Plasma 6.0 is out, but I probably wonāt live that long ā¦
The switch from GNOME to KDE Plasma for me was hard at first too. Even switched back and forth a lot. Although I think future wise KDE will be the better one.
Completely agree . Because Plasma devs are doing a greta job . Even small issues are being taken care of .
I used to have KDE for several years, this is not the problem for me. The problem is rather that, after I have become friends with GNOME for a long time, KDE seems to me to be somewhat exaggerated. However, I also miss too much in GNOME ā¦ But I liked how far they have come with Wayland in GNOME. On KDE used to bother me the most, how quickly something was broken again. I only know one thing for sure: Iām done with Xfce!
Whenever I use KDE I miss GNOME and whenever I use GNOME I miss KDE.
