glad you likr it :3
OK this might be my favourite rice ever. Its so slick and I love purple.
tysm ^w^
What are you using to get borders like that? I'm on KDE abd my windows have no border.
KDE-Rounded-Corners, just get it from settings>Desktop Effects>Get New
@blinfabian @Fizz This doesn't show up for me, only on the store.kde.org website. "Get New" is always so inconsistent :(
Discover doesn't show it either. Here it is on the KDE store.

@blinfabian @Fizz You have to build it yourself this way though :(
Maybe it's distro dependant. I'm using Fedora & Neon, & I don't see this in "Get New" or Discover on either one.
yea i used to have to build it myselr, but now i can just go throught the steps i mentioned. i do use arch instead of fedora idk if that matters
It looks like there is some tiling. Is that an extension?
its a KWIN script called krohnkite
For a sec I thought this might have been another generic hyprland post. Looks great! Nice to know how dynamic plasma is.
Very gorgeous, though very different from my own more vanilla setup.
I love KDE so dearly, and the fact that our two desktops can look so different from each other and also still look nothing like the default Plasma arrangement with relatively little effort is one of the things that makes me love it so dearly.
(I'm sure that took you hours of time to set up originally, but compared to so heavily modifying Windows or most other comparably popular DEs....)
As a side note, I love transparent terminal windows, but somehow they are perfectly readable in screenshots of other folks' systems yet annoyingly hard to read when I try setting them up myself. Is it possible to blur them a bit in kwin these days for readability? I haven't tried in years.
yes i love how customizable KDE is too :3 and yoy can blur the terminal through its own config file (i have experience with alacritty and kitty)
can blur the terminal through its own config file
Thank you I will check it out!
What terminal font are you using?
im using Pixeloid Mono for everything, not just terminal :P
Thanks 💜
How are your monitors arranged?

That makes sense. I saw the screenshot's arrangement, and thought there's no way that's usable.
Very nice! Are you using some sort of tiling window management plugin/setting for kde? Or did you place the windows manually?
