  • Including Unix and BSD.

    All fun and games but I'm still missing the "paste without format" keybind.

    Powertoys is a great addition and while there probably are addons for all of these in linux I kinda wish they would come in one package together too.

    Maybe it's just me but I feel like I'm not helping my system by tagging on add on after add on just to get back some basic functionality from Window like a clipboard and status indicators for some apps in my taskbar

    I kinda wish they would come in one package together too.

    You may be able to find themed meta packages (single packages that install a suite of related features) for this, depending what you're looking for.

    Lately, I have been confused because I was looking for Gnome add-ons for features that vwere already included but just toggled off.

    I now find that most of what I want, as a power user, is a quick settings search and then a toggle button.

    The general dividng line, lately, in Gnome, is that plugins may still have bugs, while built-in features tend to be very reliable. Most of what PowerToys contains (that I care about) is just a settings toggle in Gnome. A notable exception is Window tiling, which I use a plugin for.

    I will go through the list of power tools and see what I can get from Gnome settings πŸ€”

    KDE plasma has like 90% of the feadures.

    [–] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago

    I think I will need to go over to KDE anyways soon

    You are not a Plasma user it seems.

    Well, you fell on the sad trap of the "default flavour" of many distros.

    I think GNOME only has that presence because... It's american. Otherwise... No one can beat the possibilities and features of KDE Plasma. Truly a complete desktop, so good you could downgrade it to work like GNOME if you wanted.

    Gnome at this point is just as bad as Microsoft and Apple.

    It's there way, or so help them God they WILL make you do it their way.

    Does ctrl-shift-v not work for you? Or do you want to rebind it?

    [–] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago

    I did not know that was a think until now but yes I want to rebind it πŸ™ˆ I will need to look into this for gnome
