Has anyone tried the #Enlightenment DE for #Linux in the recent years? How was the experience? @linux
minus-squareAnders Rytter HansenOPlinkfedilink2•1 month ago@Deckweiss Makes sense. I think I would also miss some if I switched.
minus-square@Deckweiss@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink3•edit-21 month agoPer monitor virtual desktops is really cool though. Windows 11 covers that workflow even better now with a feature called window grouping. I think I’ll need to write a kwin plugin or something for that… sorry for the offtopic rant, but thats the major thing which comes to mind when somebody mentions enlightenment!
minus-squareAnders Rytter HansenOPlinkfedilink1•1 month ago@Deckweiss I didn’t know about that feature in Windows 11 even though I use it on my work laptop but I guess it’s because I only use the laptop’s screen when I work 😂
minus-square@Deckweiss@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink3•edit-21 month agoI think it’s even better on a single monitor when you have a lot of windows open. It puts multiple windows into a group, so you only see one entry in the taskbar. When you click that, all the grouped windows get minimized/madimized. I used it on the work laptop as well. And just grouped my different sub workflows, each of which had 2-3 windows. That way I could switch the task without juggling multiple windows.
