I’m currently using Niri and sure it’s not a DE it does an excellent job of workspaces. each monitor has its own set of workspaces by default, no configuration needed.
I don’t use Dank Material Shell or any of that but in all honesty if you wrap Niri in DMS or something like it then it actually becomes a near perfect DE. Even the Niri devs now suggest you install Niri with DMS.
pretty much. DDG for example uses a bing-yahoo “alliance thing” (can’t remember what it’s officially called but Microsoft and Yahoo have a sort of partnership in this regard).
Your options for actual first party search options are literally pretty much the ones you listed. Yandex is russian so not trusting those guys anymore than I trust Google or Microsoft so that just leaves Yahoo which is…yeah.
Honestly people are just better off using something like SearX or 4Get. they’re all the same except with those two you’re not going to get the AI slop or ads.
All KDE has to do, literally all they have to do, is make dedicated virtual desktops/workspaces per monitor and i’d be happy. that’s it. I would daily drive Plasma if they just did that.
yeah I don’t bother with DDG anymore. used to love it but now it’s just hot garbage. Now I just use a 4get instance and for news just use the brutalist report and spike.news
