A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

That's because Microsoft stole so much from KDE ^^
Oh really? I was unaware lol.
Yes, the KDE twitter account even mocked Microsoft's for some of their latest 'innovations'.
Well, ultimately, I'm glad that something open source is wagging the dogs tail, I assumed it was the other way around.
Yes and no, it's mean that the creativity and innovation of people at KDE is taken without credit. But on the other hand it shows that their features are really great...
BTW they not only copied ideas but also KDE Plasma's slogan "Simple by default, powerful when needed."
Yeah, I was reading about that. It's a shame about the credit, but hey, what do we expect.
