Krohnkite? It unfortunately doesn’t have anywhere near the polish and ease of use as the PopOS implementation, for example its easy toggling between tiling and stacking. Nobody comes close to the way PopOS has done it.

Awesome, congrats to the team. I don’t use it anymore but I’ll always have a soft spot for PopOS as being the distro that finally made me a Linux fulltimer. I really wish KDE would implement their tiling system.

It’s worth it for the Elon burn alone.

If KDE had a toggleable tiling feature like PopOS it would be the perfect DE.

Depends how attractive it needs to be. “Entry level” could be an old PC you kave kicking around.

I use the prebuilt Hetzner one and have no idea either.

That’s to float one particular app window, it doesn’t disable Krohnkite altogether. The magic of the PopOS tiling is that the toggle fully enables/disables it, effectively switching between a stacked and a tiling WM with the click of a button.

I never found any way to set up a keybind - I had to deactivate and logout.

Edit: I checked again and there’s no hotkey anywhere. If you have a way to do this, I’m all ears.

Tried it - it works, but isn’t toggleable like the PopOS tiling which has a taskbar button and a hotkey.

The tiling feature is killer, I really wish KDE had something imilar that can be easily toggled on and off.

this will be System76’s main distro for their computers.

Just to clarify, COSMIC is a DE, not a distro. PopOS is their distro.

Dolphin does have dual pane and can do things like FTP but Krusader has much more keyboard control, more advanced filtering, can use root, is much better at comparing files, and other things I’m sure I’m forgetting.

I’m not familiar with Directory Opus but try Krusader (sort of a spiritual successor to Norton Commander)

I mercifully don’t like in the US, but I am quite politally active, thanks.

Oh that’s adorable, it’s like a Roman in 80 CE complainign to their senator about government policy.

HP is probably the worst offender in this regard - their website is almost unusable. Lenovo is a close second, and I say this as a compulsive ThinkPad buyer.

Edit: I think a lot of commenters here aren’t reading the article. This isn’t about your favourite laptop, it’s about why manufacturer websites suck.

Oh wow, thanks for the recommendation. This looks perfect.

Probably Steam Deck users with that handheld device in one hand and their handheld device in the other.

Linux has always had a strong showing over there. If I had the misfortune of living there I’d certainly want all the privacy and autonomy I could get…
