1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    Trying Plasma for a bit to see how green the grass is as a longtime Gnome user. The last time I ran Plasma on my main desktop was version 5.11, I think? It's been a while...

    For me, i made it so pressing Super+ switches to that workspace.

    Super+Tab to toggle overview (Super+W by default)

    And a hot corner, which is set to trigger almost instantly, to toggle overview.

    I remapped my side mouse buttons to switching workspaces, and I absolutely love it.

    Yea I did something similar on GNOME I mapped one of my mouse side buttons to be META and that way I could use it to access the overview and applications aswell as using side button + scroll wheel to switch workspaces.

    I love it so much I have implemented the same functionality In cosmic and would do the same in KDE.

    That actually sounds good, but i like to use those in the browser and games

    Same here with the Super+ to switch (or equivalent function key if you use that binding for something else), and similarly Super+Shift+ to send the current window to that respective workspace. For me, without the second one workspaces are waayy less productive.

    Same. I have to use windows for work, and the virtual desktops are just mediocre at best to use.

    [–] probably2high@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

    Man, the Windows implementation of virtual desktops is beyond useless to me to the point of exponential loss of productivity. That's probably my fault for thinking it's the same use case as workspace switching in Unix--it's really more like KDE's Desktop Sessions feature, which is nice, but not really useful for my case.
