--- Comment #430 from Lehmeier <r.lehme...@freenet.de> --- People - slow down. It is true that in recent years KDE is no longer as handy and efficient as it once was with the last KDE 4. But that is no reason to become so personal, belittling and insulting. When, after many years of testing, I decided to switch to Linux, I used XFCE. It can only handle background images and is not as customisable as KDE. But since I can only use a few things anyway and the others are too complicated under KDE, I immediately switched to XFCE. Should KDE once again allow this simple and efficient way of working and - with each new version - stop reinventing the wheel, I will gladly come back. It would be nice if KDE would finally take care that after switching to a newer version not everything has to be reconfigured. It would have been a help if you didn't have to update to the new version 5 and could just continue to use KDE 4. Unfortunately, this no longer exists and if it did, it would be replaced by Plasma (KDE 5) with the next update. What is often forgotten: It is not only about the wallpapers but also about the fact that you could personalise every virtual desktop. With your own views and your own widgets and mini-programs. So that you had an efficient desktop on which everything could be tailored to one workspace. For music, you had Player, Audacity and the folder view of "My Music". For video, you had a video editing programme - one folder for music and one for video (easy to do through the folder view). What I also appreciated with genealogy was that you had 3 folders in which you could call up your files, the genealogy programme, and Libreoffice. For office tasks there was then the area with the usual suspects Libreoffice. Scanning and co. ... and so on. Each area had its own layout and thus no superfluous programmes or whatever were open. It was clear what the workspace was intended and set up for. During the development, 1. the claim should apply: "One should do one without leaving the other. "And 2. no new version should be rolled out without at least having the functionality of the old one. With Plasma I just have a big mess. On one laptop I have 2 workspace toggles because I had moved a program to another on one activity and then it wasn't there. When I looked I found it had ended up on a virtual desktop. however it got there. and no I didn't move it there by accident. Things like that make working very unpleasant. KDE used to be, despite high hardware demands, the best desktop - today, unfortunately, it is only in the midfield. This is due to the abolition of "different mini-programs for each desktop" - which unfortunately makes working with KDE very unpleasant. I hope you get the hang of it and it becomes usable again soon - and not just until the next version. I would like to work with KDE again - but if that is not desired, then I will have to stay with XFCE or similar - unfortunately.
