Moved to using KDE recently and it's everything I've ever wanted in aesthetics and customization. Unfortunately, dolphin doesn't refresh when files are moved around and while I tried to accept it, I just can't. Showing me where files are is literally the only job of a file manager.

Are there any other file managers that can take all the themes and colors in KDE? I love having a full theme but I can't stand this manual refresh thing.

First - this is a stupid take.

But second - KDE is easily the buggiest de/wm I've ever used. Things just not working sometimes is basically a feature.

Not been my experience at all.

I haven't had issues with bugginess in years, but it probably depends upon how you're using it.

KDE has been stable recently unless you're on some rolling release.

Have you donated to KDE? Have you contributed to its development? Cause you sure as hell didn't pay for it so maybe shut up or be a little more grateful that a free and open DE is only a few features away from a competitor developed by billion dollar companies

Go back to slashdot in the '90s with that attitude.

I mean you're criticizing a piece of free software like they made it just for you. Grow up and have some perspective

[-] atzanteol@sh.itjust.works 1 points 18 hours ago

Oh my - yes the KDE team is surely above criticism.

[-] MonkderVierte@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 day ago

What, you would find it ok, if, let's say in your favorite text editor, the text cursor just stopped moving?

[-] atzanteol@sh.itjust.works -2 points 1 day ago

Another stupid take. You're on a roll.

[-] rishado@lemmy.world 2 points 20 hours ago

Ironically you comment like you were actually a contributor on slashdot. Curt, rude, short, holier than thou

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
