Plasma is actually pretty light. It's right in line with XFCE.

Save it and then go to “Gnome Tweaks” and activate the option “make Caps Lock an additional Ctrl” on “Additional Layout Options - Caps Lock behavior”.

And how do I do that on Plasma? What's the equivalent to that in plasma?

😂. Of course I'm joking. That claim is bullshit. Hey I know a guy who sold a bridge, and he's wealthy now. Source: trust me, he told me.

"an alarming number of important people" is the source. That's more than enough, right?

It's not hatred, but I grew up in a 3rd world country where computer teaching didn't exist until I got to college, and even then, it was one 30 minutes class a week. I didn't even know many shortcuts and key combinations until I got to the US back in 2010. I'd never known that a shift key would do such things. All I knew was capslock is to make letters caps. I guess my brain was wired differently in this regard. I'm 42 now and I'm still catching up on a lot of things I've missed out on in my young days. I've just now gotten a job as a programmer literally 2 weeks ago (the irony of not knowing how to use the shift key, right?) I'm still learning about computers. I started using Linux back in 2018 and I'm still learning about it. Thanks to Linux, my learning process has been sped up a lot. Thanks for coming to my Ted talk, and I hope that that answers your question. Lol

Lol. I've learned how to touch type and I do it very well, but I can never get used to using shift. I just can't. I really tried so much.

Pop os has an app store called "pop shop", that has both apt and flatpaks. Get all of your apps from there. They also have an app installed called "eddy" that you can use to install .deb packages in case an app is not available in their app store and you had to download the .deb package for it. Also, I know pop os has an outdated desktop, but they've been working tirelessly on their rust based cosmic desktop and it's coming along pretty nicely (an alpha release is coming soon). They do maintain their current distro no problem. I honestly would stick with it and set it up to your liking. It's a very good distro. As for your OneDrive, that can work with Linux no problem. You can also use Google drive on Linux.

Thank you. I'll update it. I never use discover to update, I only use it to see what updates I have.

I have all AMD. Done with Nvidia for life until they open source their shit and straight up support Linux. Running that orphaned packages cleaning command seems to help a little. I'll test it for a while and see. It did remove a bunch of Qt5/kde5 stuff

I tested the speed on both and Midori was a lot faster.

That's a one check box in your settings and it's all gone. I see 0 of it

I'll try that. Thank you. I'm having issues on Wayland and some apps I use daily don't work there unfortunately :/

Edit:

I ran this command sudo pacman -Rns $(pacman -Qtdq) and it removed over 1GB of crap. Made a backup before doing that. I'll reboot and see if it killed my system. Lol
