    I’m not exactly talking about looking like Macos, I’m talking about how it “feels” more like a rounded corner, hide things away on the edges, overly animated kinda thing. KDE has KRunner which while being like spotlight from Macos, doesn’t feel like it.

    It’s a feeling. It’s difficult to precisely explain why it feels like a distasteful experience that I hate.

      Guess we pay attention to different things. Idk what’s overly animated about MacOS, at least the last version that I used. The main animation in there is when minimizing an app — which in fact shows where the app is gone, and is helpful for new users. It can be disabled.

        just the general communications of it. things on the taskbar bounce sometimes for notifications, when you enter the password wrong the panel shakes, etc etc. I am forced to use one for work, so I don’t spend too much time trying to customise it, I gave it a once over to get rid of most of the annoying things.

        At home I’ve gone from Windows (non 11) -> KDE , so things are a lot more “colour change” instead of “animations”

        EDIT : oh shit, it’s you! Thanks again for all your contribs in !music@lemmy.world
