--- Comment #24 from Max <maximts...@gmail.com> --- I agree with your point that KDE is all about choice, but the choice should not only be about using one start menu or another: the start menu itself should provide the choice and ability to configure it for user's liking, at least the most frequently requested options. You don't have to install whole another taskbar widget in order to get the ability to place it on the right side of your screen, right? Almost every thing in KDE interface has some options and configurations — in fact, there's so much of them, that I keep discovering new options and hidden features even after 6 years of using KDE. And yet, for whatever reason, devs decided to make an exception just for the new Kickoff launcher, implementing quite arguable UX decision and leaving no option to change it, with the argumentation like "get used to it or change the launcher". Just as you mentioned, it feels a lot like macOS, when "big company" forces you to accept their vision on how to use the computer, instead of allowing you to implement your vision. This is not what KDE is all about, in my opinion. Your "solution" about using the Legacy launcher doesn't fit for me, because I quite like the new launcher, I like the grid layout much more that a list one. Also it's the only launcher that will be actively maintained and get new features. But I don't like the left-side sidebar and hover activation — even the legacy launcher had an option to disable hover activation, despite it was less neccessary there. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
