      it’s really one of those “well…it depends” It works for you because you somehow figure out the magical setup. It’s never worked for me even on Arch with dolphin. and I didn’t even bother dealing with it on NixOS.

      I experienced it mostly on gnome. You would right click and ask to browser file and it wouldn’t do anything. You had to repeat it several times for it to open.

          Yea gnome is fucking trash right now. I keep trying it out but it’s more trouble than it’s worth.

          I used to love it back in the day but the devs are stubborn and continue to push an unintuitive design for some reason and GTK is pretty terrible.

          On the flip side I hated Plasma 5 for a long time when it first released because it was buggy as all hell. But now it’s my main choice as well.

            Plasma just has so much qol settings built into it. The only thing I’m missing is remote access, for whatever reason I can either get unattended access where the mouse and keyboard work, but the whole screen is white, or I get attended access, where I have to press a button on the computer to allow access

            plasma has made such monstrious strides that i decided to switch to it after updating my mom’s laptop and going “oh shit that’s sweet”

            i’m fairly certain you could mostly replicate gnome in plasma, just like you can replicate windows
