Why is Linux so frustrating for some people?
(lemmy.ml)
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.

This is a problem with the DE that you use and not linux in general. Gnome and KDE for example don't have this issue. I'm guessing you're using xfce?, since I had the same issue with it.
XFCE and Cinnamon. I've got a Xubuntu server and a Mint laptop, and they both do it.
It's not a major issue, but it's enough to break my train of thought, which is annoying.
