You're improving!

You probably know all of this but here it is anyway. This is a personal question, a desktop is good if you like it. If you want to play with it, you can try different themes, colors, icons, moving the panel from one side to the other, make it float or rounded, give a chance to a global menu, hot corners, Yakuake, different menus, fonts (Nerd fonts are fun BTW)...

I personally like minimal setups with powerful capabilities. I use Plasma too, but I use shortcuts all the time. That means, for example that I don't use a dock, I use Meta+W (or bottom corners) so I don't need it at all. Also, no widgets at the desktops (excets for sometimes notes) and only the ones I use at the top bar. Here is my setup if you want to check it out.

If you ask me, I think your desktop looks good, maybe I would make the top panel thinner to be more coherent with the bottom one. If it's Latte, I would make it get bigger with the mouse. About the apps, I don't trust Vivaldi or Mega, but I do trust Firefox and Nextcloud. But again, it's a personal decision.

PS: great film BTW

I would prefer the clock to be more visible than the day of week but that's obviously up to you.

Well, you still have a clock at the bottom right, and there is some aesthetics to your current setup. Have a backup of the config file ready if you do change something.

I was about to ask if AmaroK is any good these days, but then I realized it's the LibreWolf logo.

Is wallpaper engine supported?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

There is a Wallpaper extension in KDE Plasma that supports wallpaper engine. But I am not using it right now

Stop caring about opinions.

I want to make my rice better, so I am asking for ways I can improve. :)
These is no need to be mean here we are not on Reddit ❤️

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago

I'm just saying do what you think looks good instead of what other people tell you. If you like that rice, don't let someone not liking it change your opinion.
