Holy shit. I saw this when it first got posted and saved it thinking maybe there'd be some nice discussion on it by the time I got some sleep.
Nope, it's just some fanboy screaming KDE IS BETTER through the whole topic.
jfc.
If there's one thing you can count on within Reddit/Lemmy Linux communities, it's a certain subset of KDE Plasma users who get immensely triggered about Gnome, and feel the need to broadcast that hatred to the world.
I can't imagine caring so much about the software that somebody else uses on their computer. I just don't understand it.
I personally think tiling window managers are irritating to use, but I'm not going to take time out of my day to moan about them, call them crap, and even go onto tiling window manager communities and call their projects shit.
Herd mentality showing its ugly face!
Yes, when it's just you ranting about how much better KDE is.
That's cool. It's still a bloated ass DE with a candy wrapper. Has been for 20 years. 👍
With thumbnails?? ( °o°)
But I bet we still won't get working thumbnails
We already do, though.
Fedora 39. Downland an image and then look at it in picker and there's no thumbnail. The picker won't generate thumbnails.
Ah, I know what you mean.
Yeah, the way it works now I think the file picker relies on Nautilus to generate the thumbnail first, so any new images will use a placeholder instead. Once you've viewed the file in Nautilus once, though, the thumbnail will show up in the picker from then on.
Yep which when downloading from one place to then upload to another place is not part of the process
Here's hoping this gets fixed, it's annoying and stupid
Depends on your use case, I suppose. I'm generally editing existing images and files, so I had practically forgotten that the picker doesn't generate the image itself. For me, thumbnails work perfectly 99% of the time, but for someone who is constantly working with freshly downloaded files, I can understand that it would be a pain.
Yeah but you also have to put up with the rest of that DE
Yes, we quite literally do.
Yes on by default.
@Zuberi @petsoi There are people like me who prefer GNOME. And I’m really grateful to use it every day and that I don’t have to use KDE. But I also appreciate all the efforts of KDE Plasma and people seem to like it.
I've tried both. I hate kde. I get why people like it. But I personally can't stand it.
@Zuberi I tried KDE it messed up my GNOME settings. It did not like it. I don’t want to spend my time customizing my desktop. I really like how stable GNOME is and how intuitively it feels. Plasma’s settings app scares me.
@Zuberi I rebased from Silverblue to Kinoite. So #Plasma managed to mess up by altering the #GNOME config files in my home directory which is quite invasive. I really don’t like the look and feel of default Plasma and I’m not interesting spending my time configuring it. Also I really love GNOME and there us no missing feature that Plasma offers.
This is a gnome channel. Do you just hang out here to simp for kde? Go find a kde channel where you're not off topic
