Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Stupid space wasters that make everything look like a toy.

A professional taskbar should be attached to the bottom of the screen, and an unprofessional one should be auto hidden or on the side of the screen. Top's a bit weird, but has character.

I moved from Mint to Bazzite the other day and was just about ready to move back when I saw the default desktop. Flatpaks are... Different, but don't seem particularly better or worse yet. That fucking floating taskbar had to go though. Disgusting. Stick to the edge of the screen like you're meant to.

You installed it in the same week that most of the Ublue atomic spins like Bazzite launched their own store app called Bazaar that only shows flatpaks from Flathub and isn't slow as dirt like KDE Discover. It's pretty nice.
