  • Gnome seems to still require you to install a browser extension to use Shell Extensions.

    You can download the Extension Manager from Flathub. You don’t have to use a browser to install extensions at all.

    KDE widgets are fantastic, I love having system monitors in a hidden panel at the top of my screen so I can really easily check system resource usage. I haven’t found anything similar on Gnome yet.

    There are extensions for that in Gnome. I would mention “Vitals” or “Astra Monitor” if you want to go overkill.

    Konsole by default switches tabs with ctrl tab but Terminal doesn’t and thats basically my only issue with it.

    Default Gnome terminal is bad. Even Fedora which is a distro that ships almost every DE without any changes switched from the default Gnome terminal to Ptyxis. Ptyxis is probably still not enough for power users, but at least it has more settings including the ability edit keyboard shortcuts and looks better.

    By default on KDE, if you shake your mouse the cursor gets bigger and there doesn’t seem to be a size limit which is so fun to do lol

    There’s also an extension for that in Gnome although it probably does not have this funny “feature”.











  • Isn’t this a problem with every package/library system? Is there really a solution to this that doesn’t limit packages with how they handle their dependencies?

    This may also be about trust. npm probably could limit a number of dependencies that a single package can have with an arbitrary limit, but they don’t do that, because they trust the developers they won’t misuse their options. Well…

    Where possible, maintain the right-click-view-source affordance. The beauty of the early web was that it was always possible to “peek behind the curtains”.

    Just make the source code availible behind a visible link (hosted on Github or another similiar platform if possible). I don’t see this being a problem by any means.
