Off-brand Gnome from the Discounter Shop. Comes with hard dependency on hostile company.

Early bird GNOME trolling. 144Hz would be proud of you.

Better to have the option and not use it than to not have the option at all

Wrong, it's best to easily find option we use where and when we expect it to be.

Maybe on KDE Neon.
Kubuntu still refuses to upgrade to 5.15.3 without a clear reason why!

Yes on KDE Neon.

The screenshot is also showing my favorite Plasma feature: The full vertical screen space is available to applications...if you move the dock (that isn't called dock) to the left screen edge.

because even windows and macos imitate that. Maybe something you call disaster is actually something really good. Maybe you are just...

macos imitates gnome 3?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH.

and here I thought it's the other way around...

Plasma is using its own Qt 5.15.3. While frameworks is transitioning to Qt6.

skeevy420 Thank you for pointing that out.
Fans are tragicomical figures. While they're ridiculous, the tragedy is the damage they cause.
Talking about hostility, I think it's worth mentioning how user hostile is Gnome as a project. It's even hard to call it a community.

That said I also think that nobody ever disputed that Gnome's overview is awesome.
It was about time that Kde copied it. Long overdue, actually.

Copying something by someone who does it better is good.
Let's have more of that everywhere, especially in the open source world.

It's not like Gnome wouldn't benefit from copying something from Kde.
Or Linux from copying something from Windows and Mac.
And viceversa, of course

That's golden coming from the off-brand Red Hat (Fedora) user whose OS comes with a hard dependency on hostile company (IBM).
