If you're using systemd they just recently introduced run0 which works very similarly to what's talked about here

Viable Alternative for ZSH as the interactive shell?

So I'm currently using zsh + oh my zsh, and have been using it for some years now. It's good, it has amazing features (via plugins) and overall I'm happy with it. But lately it has become laggy for me (probably because of plugins) and I want to see if there's any other shell with features like ZSH but faster and lighter?...

Environment variables are easy to setup in bash? It's never been anything other than straightforward in my experience

🤔 hating the windows UI and then going to KDE which is basically a more customizable windows UI seems...odd

The windows UI being boring doesn't necessarily have to be caused by a lack of customizability. The windows UI is just a boring UI design even if you make it more customizable. Makes it better, but doesn't fix the problem IMO.

Yes I do lol, not very often I get recognized in the wild. Hello.

🤔 I'm actually surprised it's THIS customizable. We're talking functionally right? Not just style. Idk I guess I'm not a huge fan of the "start menu/task bar" and having a desktop, maybe I'm the weird one though. I ran vanilla gnome and then sway so desktops and taskbars and all of that aren't really my thing.

That's fair, also I'm not saying KDE doesn't have a use case, for example people who are tired of windows for one reason or another but like the windows UI. Cinnamon has a similar use case which is one of many reasons I think mint is a great starter distro. I just found it odd that somebody who didn't like the windows UI went to that desktop over the other less Windows like desktops. Comment got ratioed so hard people seem to think I'm hating on the guy or his rice but I just find it odd to not like the windows UI and then go to one of the most Windows like desktops.

LOL, yeah, honestly with how hard I got ratioed it's like I offended someone XD. I just found it an odd choice to complain about windows aesthetics and then be like "here's my fancier windows" but to each their own. Anyway, glad you like the project and find it useful.

Huh, tbh I've never given KDE a real try. I used it way back in the day on OpenSUSE because I wanted a windows experience but that was when I was still playing around with Linux. I've never used it full time. My first full time DE was cinnamon and eventually I decided I wanted something radically different and so went to gnome 3 and never really considered KDE as radically different from anything I had used before.

I think COVID is partially to blame here too. Specifically with the over hiring. A lot of companies took on too many people with the influx of cash caused by everyone staying home and playing games and when the market went back to level and everyone went back to work companies were left holding the bag for a bunch of employees that they realistically couldn't support and probably shouldn't have hired.

While this functionality is proprietary to Nvidia ray tracing isn't and since RTX is just nvidia's brand of ray tracing your statement of RTX being proprietary isn't wholly accurate.
