Kinda same, but I would also always tinker with Plasma endlessly customising every little bit, installed applets and widgets to check if they’re better than what I’m currently using. It got tiresome, but I just couldn’t stop myself. After a while I installed Gnome and just embraced the simplicity.

points the gun Always have been

Not only government. I can’t see my daughter’s insulin pump status if I don’t disable developer mode.

In my experience it was KDE 3 that was praised, while 4 was shunned for being too bloated, and trying to be too much like Windows Aero

Just uhhh… Build a wall, I guess?

You can, but for me there’s just too much to fiddle, and I can’t help tinkering with stuff.

Eh, Gnome is fine. I like KDE, but I’d rather use my PC for the stuff I want to use it for rather than obsessively change some stuff so it looks better only to change it the next time I boot it again.

On one hand yes, on the other, you don’t really need the newest games, as you definitely have a backlog full of games to play. I am very slowly looking for maybe an upgrade to my 6yo PC, but maybe a sidegrade is all I need. Maybe a switch 2? There’s a lot less pressure on constant upgrades if you don’t chase the big trends and upgrade every cycle

My Kobo Libra Color does it. I do sometimes need a bit of time to format manga properly but it’s perfectly doable.

I’m still on my Zen1 1600, with DDR4 RAM and RX580 8GB which I built back in 2018. Whenever I’m thinking of upgrading I just look at the prices. I’d basically need to upgrade everything, maybe aside from GPU which would become a giant bottleneck, so it should be upgraded as well.
I really don’t even want to think about gutting my PC and upgrading, I’d much rather switch to a console.

This one is the worst for me

Even if they wouldn’t go for the name, Walkman was a generic name for this category of devices, at least here in Poland. You wouldn’t go buy a cassette player, you’d go buy a Walkman, not necessarily a Sony made one. So I could definitely see people calling their devices Smart Walkman

I’m in the same boat. Best terminal app I’ve used in a long while. Not using AI features

Huh, interesting. Since I got a Mac at work I have problems going back as command/alt + key feel a lot more natural than control + key.

That’s cool but for some reason VS Code is just super distracting for me. I really can’t focus well when I’m using it, Zed feels a lot more focused for me

GO FOR THE EYES BOO, FOR THE EYES!

Huh, did it really do that? I remember installing steam for Linux as soon as beta was available but never had this happen to me
