Spent lots of time with Gnome 2.
In Dec 2024 I got hooked in Hyprland on Arch and have a cool rice for it. But I’ve tried KDE on desktop now with Parrot OS since Plasma is popular. Still need to find some cool dot files or rice it myself.
I’ve noticed SwayFX getting lots of love lately. I might use that as an option with Plasma but am afraid of conflicts. I’m excited about it since Linux has now officially replaced windows on my gaming rig, which is the very last MS computer left in my house.
Its different now, and I mean it. I used Krohnkite in Plasma 5 when it worked well, but later it started to be buggy. Its a fork from the original BTW and the main thing that is worked on at https://codeberg.org/anametologin/Krohnkite . I think reason it was buggy is, caused by Wayland or when transitioning to Plasma 6, forgot. Then I switched to Polonium (kwin script) and it worked but wasn’t great. But Polonium started to be buggy too,… then Krohnkite was reworked, even the Kwin developers made adjustments so that Krohnkite works well.
I am using it again since Plasma 6 launch period and it works well. Krohnkite is not buggy and it even got some cool features, where you can dock any window to the side or top or bottom side in a smaller area, that will not interfere with the other windows for tiling in example. So all in all, if you think about using it, then I can highly recommend Krohnkite.
