There are multiple screenshot software for Linux. I use spectacle specifically for KDE.

What is the shortcut?

After installing Spectacle, you can configure the shortcuts there or from KDE settings. I think the defaults are:
Meta+PrintScr = Full screen
Ctrl+PrintScr = Window

The grub package was updated and is safe to use now, right?
Alyx 🦊 2022-09-01 01:27:48
Don’t wanna update my system for it to break

the only change is a message inviting you to reinstall grub and update its configuration

os-prober

Alyx 🦊 2022-09-01 01:29:24
The comfort of grub was obviously taken away by the broken update
Rob 2022-09-01 01:29:32
Alyx 🦊 2022-09-01 01:29:06
os-prober

Can’t beat a good old uefi boot menu

Alyx 🦊 2022-09-01 01:30:06
But I use grub because I like grub, easy to install and it has os-prober

UEFI boot menu requires me to press one too many buttons

Alyx 🦊 2022-09-01 01:30:31
Two actually, since I have to hold fn down in order to have function keys (65% keyboard)

Same here, feels nice and clean though

systemd-boot vs grub is as pointless of a discussion as gnome vs kde for desktop users

yup one is unreliable, but less ugly and more convenient for a lot of people

I tried switching to KDE thrice now and it really did not last long on my machine, it’s a pain in the butt for me to use because I can’t make it look like how I want it to look (minimal and non obstructive)

latte dock keeps crashing and is much less convenient (and more complex) to use than dash to dock

Rob 2022-09-01 01:51:00
Interesting take, yeah i forget looks are a dealbreaker for some people
Alyx 🦊 2022-09-01 01:51:23
And some functionality
Alyx 🦊 2022-09-01 01:51:47
Dash to dock and gTile are very important for me because they’re easy to install and very easy to use
Alyx 🦊 2022-09-01 01:52:14
On KDE, I put in too much effort into my DE; I don’t have Linux or a Desktop Manager to work on, I have that to work *with*

you can get a dock-like experience with kde and icons only task on panel, and panel made floating, resized.
Alyx 🦊 2022-09-01 01:52:46
You know, the whole using my computer as a tool and not as a constant DIY project schtick

With a lot more effort and it not working as well as dash to dock, sure

unboundvariable 2022-09-01 01:53:15
very little effort.
Rob 2022-09-01 01:53:22
Haven’t played with any of that stuff, I’ve always used the default plasma theme/wallpaper etc

I know most people shove all the tray stuff on another panel, but not me..
Alyx 🦊 2022-09-01 01:53:57
I’m aware
Alyx 🦊 2022-09-01 01:54:09
But I want to hide the panel when a window is over it, and pull it up when my mouse is close
Alyx 🦊 2022-09-01 01:54:20
You know, using my whole screen as a screen schtick
