but shit like this really grind my gears 
Like, the “start menu” -> type in name of program workflow is so awful. “ter” should become Terminal (Konsole)?? “settings” should return System Settings, not fucking KDebugSettings.
GNOME just works so much better, and literally the only reason I stopped using it is because I want my games to screentear. And the patch to enable that is taking forEVER to land.
I recently convinced a friend to switch from linux to windows, she was already impressed that a program popped up if you just searched the right category, so things could always be worse :)
(tbh a direct name match to the program should be prioritized over a category, agree with you on the settings though)
Haha other way round ofcourse, I am nkt that much of a sadist ;p
