Trying Plasma for a bit to see how green the grass is as a longtime Gnome user. The last time I ran Plasma on my main desktop was version 5.11, I think? It's been a while...

Virtual desktop doesn't segregate running applications and all the rest of the things you can configure in Activites like wallpapers and themes. I much prefer it for organizing my, well, activities when I have a bunch of tasks on the go. I can run an activity for coding that's distinctly different from personal tasks and I don't see the programs in the task list from other activities.
It's almost like running another plasmashell on an alternate TTY but I can move running applications between Activities or have them show up in multiple Activities, or always have them open on a certain Activity that I've dedicated to that app. And I can distinguish between them easily at a glance because I might have an entirely different Global Theme, ~~panels~~ and widgets applied to that Activity
Protip: set a shortcut for switching activities to Meta-Tab and it makes it way more likely to use.
Better?
By far.
We have fixed the internet.
I knew that, if we all work together, we could make it happen.
am i doing it right?
No.
too late to stop it now.
