- The only two GUI features I can't live without is the OS X-style ability to switch and manage windows using simple keyboard shortcuts, and a pasteboard (plaintext copy history). I feel like a slug without those two. -- And by customizable, does that mean I can have a lean KDE setup without any bloat? As long as I can opt out of features that will slow down performance or take up screen real estate, I'm good. And yeah, it's hard to really understand the differences when I read about them.iDontKnowBetter– iDontKnowBetter2012-07-02 02:21:48 +00:00Commented Jul 2, 2012 at 2:21
- 2@fakaff KDE is not "bloat" in the sense that it requires a lot resources but in the sense that it doesn't hide options and possible features from the user. Is really has a lot features, but there are only very few that actually have any impact on the performance.API-Beast– API-Beast2012-07-02 03:41:24 +00:00Commented Jul 2, 2012 at 3:41
- I think they all are capable of most of what you want, but some may take more work than others to learn and implement the features. I personally use Gnome classic with Compiz and dual monitors, and I use the keyboard a lot. There are shortcuts for moving windows between monitors, to various places on one monitor (like top half, left half, middle full screen, etc. There's also keys Expo, etc. And I believe they all have clipboard managers.Marty Fried– Marty Fried2012-07-02 04:11:38 +00:00Commented Jul 2, 2012 at 4:11

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. shell-script), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
