How come they are in an endless loop of fixing and breaking shit?KDE 5 last minor was perfect, no bugs, smooth, fastKDE 6 was completely brokenThe last KDE update was also smooth and good enoughThe latest one is full of BUGS AGAIN, why do we have to wait for 15 patch updates to have a stable desktop again just for it to go downhill the next minor?
>>106976579Is there any jeet in the devs?
>>106976579this has always been the KDE cycle, it used to take way longer, KDE 5 wasn't good until a few minor releases before the first LTS release, KDE 4 was a shitfest until shortly before KDE 5 released KDE priorities seem to have become fucked up thanks to new leadership since a year ago or so, I'd guess that's why they started to break more shit
>>106976579Hah, I don't have that problem.Win11, btw.
>>106976579kde is trash
>>106976688yes
>>106976706Nate, an ex apple employee, made a company around the Valve contract and took over KDE leadership and top devs
>>106976579That's why you should use LXQT instead
>>106976913use xfce its cuter and has a mascot
KDE: rhymes with 'gay'de, people say 'krash' with a k, easily made fun ofGNOME: retarded suggested pronunciation. bloated, foot fetish logo, easily made fun ofXfce: easily called 'xfeces', outdated and looks like windows 3.1 levels of obsolete. easily made fun ofCinnamon - normal, good looking. nobody makes fun of
>>106976952>"normal, good looking. nobody makes fun of">hard fork of GNOME 3, so it's javascript but without the extensions but also mutter without wayland>gave up on trying to compete and started using libadwaita apps by default>website got hacked>clem makes thousands each month but doesnt pay devs>design was updated the last version to match adwaita
>>106977006>doesn't have gaylandI don't see the problem. I couldn't tell the difference if it did. this is just autism, everything works>muh HDRgo back to linux Tech Tips nobody gives a fuck about HDR
>>106976952More like>KDE: Win10-like interface that eases Windows-Linux transition>GNOME: Productivity maximized>XFCE: Stable and Lightweight XP-like experience>Cinnamon: D E P R E C A T E D
>>106976913>>106976946Unfortunately if you have a tablet pc and you need touchscreen you don't have other choices if not KDE or GNOME (the experience sucks on both, but at least you have the bare minimum)
>>106976579It's time to embrace tradition. Revert to KDE 3.5. You know you want to. https://trinitydesktop.org/
>>106976867Jesus, check out that misshaped head.
ebussy's use-case driven development proven superior yet again. GNOME hasn't had major bugs in many releases now.
linux lost
>>106977566>2019Better update soon, dummy.
>>106977006>gave up on trying to compete and started using libadwaita apps by defaultThey forked those libadwaita apps which no doubt makes GNOME devs seethe.
>>106977590its EOL is in 2029
>>106977640Ehh. Technically ya. But it's already really really old and you're going to get more incompatibility. i was told by the wage cucks IT people at my work they don't really like making new 2019s and would prefer people go to 2022. Probably some extended release licensing bs.
serves as another reminder that the linux desktop still doesn't have feature or stability parity with windows xpit's very grim that fucking windows LTSC IoT ATM machine or server editions >>106977566 are the only things usable
Works on my machine
>>106977546I call it "bloatware tax". The more features you add to a program, the more bugs you have. And when the people who added the feature fucked off, it became unmaintained and broke in a couple of updates.KDE, because they still have this youngish mentality of "let's allow everything, and we'll sort it later." IS HEAVILY TAXED. They try to appeal to everyone, trying to fill the needs of everyone with a shitload of features that are, in fact, "very niche" at best, and then they end up with a product that is garbage for everyone.GNOME realised that and decided that they will not try to be the DE perfect for everyone. Their focus is on a DE that appeals to a large number of users that want something that looks nice out of the box, that feels right when using, that doesn't require a billion features and, above all, want something that works 100% of the time. And they excelled at their objective. GNOME is by far the most beautiful DE out of the box. And by a long shot, the most stable.
>>106977684mainstream support ended a year ago, so strictly security updates forward. yet no issues and i use this as a desktop doing anything you can imagine including some multiplayer games with anticheatsi'll switch over to 2022 when i make a whole new build, this just works so well and i have everything set up just how i like it. heard 2022 has been somewhat flimsy in regards to its updates so its best to wait until it leaves mainstream support
>>106977684>>106977801>i'll switch over to 2022 when i make a whole new buildwith a pre-2021 CPU that is. everything turned to shit after that anyway.
>>106977794Gnome is equally retarded, just in the opposite direction.Here's one for you - If an application wants to open a terminal, like for managing a wine prefix in Lutris, Gnome only accepts a HARDCODED predefined list of terminal apps that can be called. Only way to load up a different terminal with error is to fucking symlink and spoof the one you want to use as one of the 'approved' ones.There's pushing 'usecases', and then there's refusing to comprehend the Halting Problem and that you can't predict every legitimate use case. At least KDE gives you configurability to work around things easily.
>>106978052>predefined list of terminal apps that can be called.yes, GNOME is designed to be predictable, that is why is more stable.
>>106978217Design intent and actual execution are two very different things unfortunately
>>106976579>im rebasing to fedora-kinoite-43 as we speak
>>106976579https://kde.org/announcements/plasma/6/6.5.0/
6.5 is still in testing on arch e.g. not my problemDon't use meme distros next time

They should switch to rust or ada
>>106976579The authentic KDE experience
>>106976579What kind of fucking reprobate updoots their DE the same day it is released? Hell I don't even think any distro has pushed it already. And even if you're using KDE neon then you only have yourself to blame.
>>106976579linux users say that their toy OS is ready and then post this.

>>106979435Not nearly as based as Qubes OS!
>>106976579>KDE 5 last minor was perfect, no bugs, smooth, fastThen keep using it?
>>106976952Have you considered:Qt = queer transGtk = gas the kikesalso:Jdownloader = jewdownloaderyt-dlp = whitey-dlp
>>106980371That's how you launch anything that you want to use with dbus. It's not required, but then you will have to do shit like mount your USB drives manually. I don't even have systemd installed.
>>106980371your pic happens to me a lot but luckily i only really peed the bed once
this is what happens when you let a bunch of shitters keep introducing useless "features" that nobody wants or needs.
>>106976886>natehigger?
>>106980421I never knew that was what it is an accronym for. But makes sense so obviously true
