I wanna try one of these adventure games, they look really cool and it's been years since I played a point n click adventure, should be fun! Which one do you think is one of their best to start on? Technobabylon? Maybe Strangeland?

KDE Plasma continues improving to stop you breaking things

I'm surprised the Steamdeck team chose KDE for the DE, and not something simpler and less resource heavy like XFCE. Being that it's a battery powered device (sometimes) I would think they'd want to squeeze every single compute cycle they could and isn't KDE the heaviest DE out there?

This is awesome, POP OS is my favorite distro I've ever used. Can't wait for their DE.

Quoting: Guest
Quoting: TheRiddickIs it trying to be like MacOS? looks like it.

Not sure why this comes up so often but it's nothing like it.

I have not used it, so I cannot comment, but from the screenshots it looks identical to macos. I suppose the same could be said for gnome, and kde looking like a windows variant. So in the end ... I don't think the DE matters as much as people put weight into. Get into something YOU like and works for you, and move past it. You spend the majority of your time on the machine either working or gaming or browsing etc... than messing around in various de windows.

I absolutely love Pop!_os (writing this from it right now) so I see this as a good thing, as long as they can give it the proper support it deserves. I'm not sure a small hardware company like that can, but good on them for trying.
