OP on r*ddit here
the best part is that if you want it too look this sweet it’s all through gui menus and simple interfaces. You download themes through theme browsers in settings. It literally couldn’t be easier imo.
everytime i try to switch to linux i run in to some dumb shit like not being able to change my monitor’s refresh rate or my videos tearing or some shit and i get upset and give up
So Kubuntu not Ubuntu, right? I’m not a big fan of GNOME myself but maybe try Ubuntu out… or you can give KDE another try but this time look for support from the community if you run into any problems. There is a KDE Telegram group where you can find help. There are also Matrix rooms. Actually come to think of it I hear Wayland fixes screen tearing and GNOME completely supports Wayland… to comrades passing by, this isn’t a common problem so don’t make it stop you from giving linux a shot.
And I’ve seen the holy exclusive :i-use-arch-btw: club on r/linuxmasterrace get mad about it lmao
Nothing against arch, but parts of the community seem to like it just because it’s niche
I absolutely HATE the quickbar navigation system so much
What Linux version has a start menu that you can pin shit to?
The last Linux I used was Ubuntu 10.04, so it’s been a minute.
honestly most desktops on linux feature pinning to a start menu (except gnome because I don’t think gnome has a start menu, it has a launchpad) I’d suggest giving linux another shot, kde if you want familiar windows/macOS style with customization or gnome if you’re willing to try something new and simple.
My issue with Linux (Aside from it being Mac for nerds) has always been the file system, unfortunately. I’ve got 20+ years of drive categorised cruft and I’m not changing all that over to a Root system.
You can just have all these files on one partition and leave them as they are.
This is KDE Plasma btw
