#desktopenviornment — Public Fediverse posts

So I've been playing around with #KDE again because I really want to like it, but I seriously gotta ask... How TF do you KDE peeps deal with the drag and drop behavior? Press Ctrl to copy or Shift to move, if you don't press either it has to ask.

Like... AFAIK, no other #DesktopEnviornment *doesn't* have a default behavior. Unless OSX is weird, isn't it pretty universally move if it's on the same partition, copy if it's on a different one?

This wouldn't be so bad, except AFAIK you *can't set a default*. So... what's up with that?

I know it's a small thing, but it makes KDE unusable and awkward for me. I have other issues with KDE (like my tendency to tweak it endlessly instead of getting work done, excessive options/features in most of the default apps, etc.) but this one thing makes it impossible for me to adjust to KDE. It's weird, and I don't understand, for the life of me, why you folks seem to be cool with it.

No shade, I just don't get it. And yeah, I've brought this up before, but only because it's a DEEPLY WEIRD design decision, at least to me.

#postmarketOS with #sxmo #DesktopEnviornment and #sway #WindowManager has been #benchmarked on https://everybytecounts.org. The best performing #LinuxMobile desktop environment tested so far. Unfortunately the postmarketOS logo hides the log output to show why the boot time is so long at 24 seconds.
