Really? With what tools?

[–] highduc@lemmy.ml 8 points 9 months ago (3 children)

I use KDE and it has desktop effects built in. One of them is wobbly windows, which I always enable. It has animations for switching virtual desktops too, but I don't see the cube around anymore, maybe it needs to be installed separately.

The cube is planned to be reintroduced in KDE 6

The Cube will return with Plasma 6: https://pointieststick.com/2023/10/27/these-past-2-weeks-in-kde-wayland-color-management-the-desktop-cube-returns-and-optional-shadows-in-spectacle/

(They had removed it, because it was difficult to maintain. Now it's been rewritten, using a new Desktop Effects API.)

Awesome!

Amazing, I never stayed that much with KDE, IDK why it just didn't click with me.

Not OP, but Wayfire has all the old-school effects plus some new ones too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a2MR7Qh9ECE

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.
