From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I asked this to an AI, and it didn't say anything intelligible, maybe I'm just not smart enough to understand AI.

uncheck “draw window contents while dragging”, that will make it only draw an outline until you release the drag

It already does that.

what monitor you have, but it may also be related to the monitor not supporting the same dpi or colorspace as the built in does

I mean that would make sense if it wasn't intermittent. It's also not a problem I have with any other OS.

I don’t know what you mean when you say “switch screens.” Like in Mission Control or switching workspaces?

Like I'm working on one screen and then switch to the other.

Option command d toggles the dock

I don't want to use a keyboard shortcut, I just want it to work correctly the way it does in GNOME.

Thank you.
