one topic I forgot to bring up in yesterday's IRC meeting is the one about "Plain Desktop" v "Desktop" (with desktop cashew) as default for new users.

Compared to previous releases the cashew is now a bit smaller, and the ZUI is "working better than ever". Additionally some functionality like Plasma key shortcuts settings and general Plasma options (Different activity for each desktop, Use a separate dashboard) are afaik nowhere else accessible.

So what to do? Change to upstream default? The plain desktop will stay in any case for people who want to use it and for people upgrading...

I tend to favour plain desktop as the default. Zooming out is still too dangerous imo. It's slow, the features there are still quite rough around the edges - if you experiment with different activities per virtual desktop you can in trouble, and zooming back in is not super intuitive. It's a bit strange and unfortunate that the shortcut settings aren't availble via systemsettings though. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help@opensuse.org
