I use this on specific systems but plasma’s information architecture (namely within the settings area) is bizarre to me. Yes you can search. No you shouldn’t have to resort to that.
I’m not keen on the little ‘K name everything’ in joke either, though thankfully you can rename desktop shortcuts to whatever you’d like there.
Yeah, they’re vastly different approaches, and despite my admittedly petty complaints, I’m eternally grateful for both; to me it feels as if both GNOME and KDE in some way cater to the creature comforts of MacOS and Windows respectively, and for end users hopefully moving on from both of those environments.
I find both KDE Plasma and GNOME can be made into serviceable experiences with enough time, and given the nature of FOSS and such, automating this as part of a custom deployment is a fairly trivial task in 2025 😊
