Liar! You are not runnning KDE! On one app it says "KDE Control Center" instead of "KDE Kontrol Kenter".

Whatever you do, DO NOT acronymize that utility!!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

i suppose that would make it (K|C)DE

[–] [email protected] 55 points 5 months ago (2 children)

Because you gave us a screenshot of KDE1 with a neofetch output that shows Debian 13, and because your title says so.

It's the note that really did it for me.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 months ago

Yeah that really confirmed it. Who trusts neofetch, come on

Damn, I know Debian is famous for having outdated packages, but this is ridiculous!

QEMU… coward!

Caught somewhere between Windows 95, OS/2, and BeOS...

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 months ago

There’s a little Workbench in there too, to my nostalgic eyes.

Can we talk about how much ram it consume ?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 5 months ago

Ah, I thought this was aVoid Linux

This is one step further than the peeps with win xp theming!

it's nothing for a GNU/Linux user

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Is that a new Linux distribution?

As someone who has distro hopped three times in two weeks after finally giving up on Microsoft for a daily driver, I feel this.

Tumbleweed is being good to me so far though so I might be done!

Wait why are you all laughing?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

Shut up. It's stable.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 5 months ago (1 children)

That's pretty crazy though 👀

ikr! ancient desktop environment on unstable release

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I suppose it’s better than those people running CDE on modern desktop Linux!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

Those people are just wrong because they're not using NsCDE instead. NsCDE is wonderful and no one will ever convince me otherwise

[–] [email protected] 8 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Crazy, already got virtual workspaces and a desktop containment with widgets

[–] [email protected] 11 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Workspaces are super old, basically as old as X itself. Pretty much any Linux DE has always supported them one way or another.

I think widgets may have been done before KDE too. Depends how you define them I guess, if it's just dynamic output slapped on a graphical bar they'd definitely been done.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

xeyes was technically a desktop widget I suppose. Desktop widgets started pretty much with X11.

my void + kde 5 is using less ram.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 months ago

Reminds me of OS/2

just like god intended. not as beautiful as templeos though

KDE 1 was great!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

That brings back memories!
