@angerydev name one app from standard Debian KDE installation that has that out of the box
-
@retoor xfce is faster and less ram!
-
@retoor kde supports pinch to zoom in browsers, xfce doesn't
kde supports smooth scrolling
kde supports off-screen bouncing when scrolling in browsers
kde supports autoscrolling
kde supports fractional screen scaling that isn't blurry
those are reasons why I switched from xfce to kde. I tried every env under the sun -

Just use i3. There is like 4 shortkeys to know.
win+1 - win-9: move to workspace
win-d: launch a program
win-enter: launch a terminal
win-v and win-h: decide if the screen will be split horyzontally or vertically
Nobody needs windows. -
@antigermanist how does it enable smooth scrolling in browser? By the way, all of those shortcut actions are configurable in KDE
-
@antigermanist I got i3 with xfce programs. forget what it is but you do need some config panels for some stuff somewhere. oh yeah like the terminal is xfce
been on it a while and I still don't understand splitting and their internal tabbing thing. shame
cuz if you split something... you can't unsplit it? so then I'm fucked
it's so comforting to live with Debian knowing that Debian is a journey, not destination. Slowly, step by step, you hone this system to be _exactly_ as you want it. it's computing on your terms.
I'm yet to wrap my head around the fact that what's on my screen is for my eyes only, and no one else anywhere in the world sees it, human or AI.
