If you want systems utilities, no need to look at the entire app list or a special exception for the sort! Just go look into the K area instead. A few other apps may invade the space, but all your system apps are gonna be in one place!
I thought most DEs gave apps generic names on their .desktop these days? gedit -> text editor, file-roller -> archive manager, baobab -> disk usage analyzer, etc.
maybe just a Mint thing, I actually used to struggle to find the actual name of an app there
While I love the fun of having a pattern like that... It's actually kinda dumb (with all due respect) that KDE had a naming convention of starting every app with K, and at the same time, a standard app menu that lists applications alphabetically.
Which means if you install a standard, expected "clean" version of KDE Plasma and it's default apps, the alphabetical sorting is almost useless yet it's the primary UX element of the most important menu in the interface.
Besides, the search from klauncher should probably show kalendar if i type calendar, its a bit annoying to have to remember these alternative spellings
God I hope wafrn takes off in a few years, I wanna leave Tumblr. Also got a silly email being shamed by the devs for not interacting much after my initial joining 😅
Ah my nemesis has shown themself
Complete display of failure on the part of the KDE developers for not calling it "Klock" or something similar
Yeah those devs used to be Konquerors
checkmate the repo name is kclock https://invent.kde.org/utilities/kclock
KDE Plasma - The only OS UI where sorting apps alphabetically is pretty useless.

Should be Klokk tbh.
Its never wise to put that many k's that close together.
In Germany we have the same thing with S’s, that’s why we invented ß
/s just in case
„Fitnessstudio“
I propose that we change it to Fitneßßtudio just to be safe.
Next thing you know they’ll do 10 minutes on the “Marschband” for warm up and then 3 sets of “Armheben”.
Three is okay, that’s just a snake.
Komm su🅱️er todd
That's just how you write "clock" in Norwegian (klokke)
Unless you're Brazilian.
That's krazy. That kant be legal. All KDE must be Kool branded.

Still love KDE though.
Never thought of it like that. You're right.

It's okay, GNOME picked up the slack with Galculator
So is their clock a Glock?
a calculator for all the linux gals
me when wafrn propaganda
Kowards!
I hate how some modern apps are just misspelled words.
Like Google instead of "googol?"
like Konsole. Google existed since forever and I doubt much people use or even know what "googol' is.
Konsole is just console in german
Lol, Konsole is only a couple years younger than Google
They fell off
Kclock
kclolck
LXQT version: Qlock
Kloq
Bonus: Qt WMs can call it Qlok.
Make it death metal themed so it can be named DethKlock 🤘
The most brutal OS ever.
We're here to make timekeeping metal. We're here to make everything metal. Blacker than the blackest black... times infinity.
Your alarm now has a 99% chance of murdering you brutally
I remember using KDE back in the day and that so many applications started with K that using the start menu to look for my application was jarring.
I'm disappointed.
Recently switched to kde, and I've been enjoying it. The hardest part is the app names.
Unrelated but what fediverse social is this?

Or at least that's where the author is posting from. The client could be any Mastodon client.
Should've named it klock
I think that's what the pic says.
