Well, I got rid of KDE and I’m on Cinnamon right now, so where are these tearing issues? You think I would have noticed after over a year of use.
Why would I care what software KDE comes with? This is Linux. I can install whatever works best for me. Including the whole of KDE software suite if I so chose. You KDE fans are voracious.
better multi monitor support
I run a 3x1 setup and KDE didn’t handle it any better than Cinnamon did.
Wayland support is coming to Mint. You can actually use it on 21.3 right now but it is unstable.
Rest of what you said is opinion.
Everyone switch to IRC, quick!
I mean, Cinnamon is really just Gnome 2 with new devs.
I have a couple of escape keys that I use, but they are too hard and the feeling is not uniform enough to use for other keys really. I wouldn’t trust them for regular alphabet at all. Especially for keys that have more angle to them they end up having a lot more topography to them.
The stems also can’t take as much abuse unless you went ahead and filled the whole key in.
20+ year Linux user here. Fuck it, I ain’t got time to manage dumb shit. Install and go, please.
Though I am curious about LMDE.
A lot of that seemingly came from when modder = cheater in GTAV. Saw a huge swing to that at the height of that game’s popularity.
Edit: Read through the comments and it’s related to GTA but in a different way. The guy was comparing bootlegging to modding because someone in his country, Indonesia, was modding GTA:SA to add children’s show characters to it, changing the packaging to make it more appealing to children, and then is selling the discs to people. Which is a whole other can of worms.
Anyone else that mentioned they didn’t like modding didn’t really elaborate.

If you mean copy/pasting the bar to the new screen/placement, I’m not sure. I’ve never gotten it to do anything other than create a new empty bar. When you look through the applets though it shows which ones you are already using and what they do so you can just click the + when you’re editing you new bar to add the thing you know you’ll want there.
Also, try out Cinnamenu, it’s better than stock start menu imo.
Yep, then right click it and click applets and add what you need them move the applets to where you want.
If it’s on steam it will run.
Negative. Some games are outright blocking Linux for whatever reason or another.
e.g.; Destiny 2
Here’s fine, it is tech after all.
That’s the largest privacy focused community though.

I have a Corsair Nightsword.
There’s an open source version of the software that, I don’t think, is official but works well. It can rebind, set RGB, change DPI settings, and most if not everything the official software can.
Corsair mice aren’t the best, and the problems seem to be certain versions of their mice. (M65 is garbage. I went through 6 of them in 6 months.) Nightsword has been great though. Scimitar is good as well, have one that’s 6 years old now.
