So... just like... KDE?

Not that it is designed for it but it is a similar workflow and should be familiar to Windows users

    Back in the day KDE's UI was very much a clone of Windows, but with even more dialogs and lists. I'm still put off by that experience twenty years later.

    I can see why so many options would make someone just shake their head and close the settings app.

    I think you should go through them when you have the time, if you’re still interested in the other things KDE brings to the table. I went through all of the settings when I moved over to openSUSE Tumbleweed last December, and I’m still here today. KDE to me is what operating systems should do. Give me the power to change every single thing I can, while still having presets for people who don’t.

    Anyway, I see your point though! The options are great for making the OS feel like mine!
