What feature in gnome or kde make this your desktop of preference ?
KDE is much more than macos and windows, and is really fast comparing to gnome and even to xfce.Gnome tries to be Mac.
KDE tries to be Windows.
Plasma offers a top panel with a global application menu and allows maximized windows to automatically switch to no-titlebar (the window control buttons move into the panel). (This works well with click-to-focus but not so well if you want a hover focus.) Check the screenshot for Plasma on this page to see what I mean. I like the global menu and the good session management with activities (it's easy to resume work on a task and have all of your documents for that task open where you left off). Plasma supports a systray. The tiling script for kwin works well enough for me.What feature in gnome or kde make this your desktop of preference ?
It's pretty sad what they did to amarok, fortunatelly there's alternatives like audio/clementine-player and audio/strawberry (the later is a fork, more actively updated with more features).Plasma 5 /KDE is the best desktop environment in my humble opinion, the user experience is intuitive by default,
- you can tweak almost everything whithout the need to have a CS degree.
- The integration between apps is great.
- The default theme BREEZE and BREEZE DARK are beautiful.
- Many cool apps made me love GNU/Linux and thus FreeBSD like K3B, amarok (QT3 version), Dolphin, akreggator...
Or when you see a broken element and thinks that website is broken, but it opens fine in any other browser.I choose GNOME 3 over KDE 5 because of Epiphany, which is a web browser with a slim interface to the full fledged original WebKit engine.
- I mean the real one, not this blending Blink stuff.
- I mean the one with options you need and not the one where you need to turn off tons of options which you don’t need and never did asked for.
- I mean the WebKit which shows the pages how it were meant to be displayed and without adding additional stupid frames inside buttons and other elements like Firefox does.
- I know Firefox got neither Blink nor WebKit, but its font rendering is the most ugly one anyway, and it takes always at least half an hour to find all the new tracking switches which you want to have turned off.
how to enable global menu?KDE Plasma which uses KWin wm is sleek and clean. It is very easy to customize and with "latte-dock" you can have a dock loaded with tons of features. KDE uses Qt.
Add the "Global Menu" widget to the left end of the (top) panel. It's easier than you thought?how to enable global menu?
