  • GNOME’s minimalist so not sure what else to show. Technically, I shouldn’t have icons on the desktop I guess.

    I have the overview (forget the actual name) on super, which is similar to GNOME’s. And also have the virtual desktops set up to horizontal only with some similar keyboard-based shortcuts for switching.

    I wanted to try the “one application per desktop” paradigm, which I did and didn’t really like it, so I went back to regular alt-tabbing + overview switching but left the layout alone.

  • I might get eviscerated for saying this, but you can replicate the GNOME workflow fairly well on KDE—KNOME if you will.

    There’s an overview similar to that in GNOME, you can set up shortcuts to mimic the keyboard+one-app-one-workspace workflow, etc.

    Good luck trying to recreate Plasma with GNOME though.
