Top bar, titlebar buttons on the left, “dock” on the right (which is just a panel), hotcorner, …

I don’t really try to replicate GNOME but rather take what improves my flow from Windows, GNOME, Unity, MacOS, …

But that’s the wonderful thing about KDE : you can choose to customize whatever you like however you feel !

Sure did. Kinda?

Moved the panel to the top, added a dock (rip latte, it’s now just a panel) and set a hot corner for the overview effect. I like it to move windows between desktops.

Everything else is default though. Maybe I changed the application launcher widget, I don’t remember.

I switched from GNOME 3 a long time ago, and emulating GNOME’s workflow would be the last thing I would want

Not really. I had just installed Void Linux and wanted to try KDE in its truest form. Aside from the crashes, I enjoyed my experience. Desktop widgets are realllly neat

Personally, not. The reason I switched to Plasma is that I didn’t like the basic layout – horizontal bar especially – and wanted a desktop environment that allowed me to customize positions and sizes of bars and so on as much as possible.

Still baffles me why they steal the usually scarce vertical screen real estate with a horizontal bar, instead of putting it on the side…

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
