Linux

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.

  • old amarok
  • actively developed oxygen qt style
  • wallpaper per virtual desktop

  • latte dock
  • parachute

I will also miss:

  • khotkeys
  • plasma theme icons
  • windowed widgets
  • icon size settings
  • some task switchers, I think

Amarok and Oxygen. Yes. 😔

For Amarok, have you tried Strawberry? It's based on Amarok and looks pretty similar but it's actually maintained.

I have used Clementine and Strawberry, great projects, but unfortunately I no longer have my old music collection, and rely on streaming services these days.

I miss latte dock too, I wish someone would fork it and get it going again. I would do it myself but I'm too lazy and stupid, I just want to use it for free.
