I hate rounded corners. But that's just my taste. Good for you if you enjoy it!

Same. I hate it on modern smartphones as well. And ads often use it. I've got a few ads with X hidden partially behind the rounded corner.

Not the best photo, but I obviously can't just take a screenshot of it. You still get the idea from it:

This is really cursed

Yeah, I don't really comprehend how people can rationalise the gaps. I want my windows to be tessellating!

INB4 somebody makes a Penrose-tiling window manager to go with their 22° rotated monitor

Using twm (I use Paperwm) and I enjoy having gaps between my windows. https://github.com/paperwm/media/blob/master/tiling.png

twm and paperwm are two very different window managers

I shortened tiling window manager. I didn't know there was one just called twm

The horror! 😱

Same!

For real, I think Windows 10 has been the OS with the best ergonomic UI design so far. Especially with the Power Toys window tiling feature.

I'm more of a plasma appreciater. I think everything after windows 7 has been very badly designed from a ux point of view

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago

I like it for some things, like an application window, since then it's clear where the window ends

I don't like it for everything though, like the bar at the top/bottom

@testeronious not a fan of rounded corners, but it's nice to have it for people who want it. Seems well done and probably a lot of work has been put into this!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago

Hmmm... Nice!

NOOOOOOOOOOO. Somebody introduce a theme to fix this.

Edit: oh this seems to be a separate project and not kde's official thing so it's not rounded by default.

@testeronious thank God I can disable round corners. 🥳
