Any KDE Plasma themes that have more padding like GNOME?

warmaster@lemmy.world to Linux@lemmy.ml – 49 points –

I moved to KDE for better gaming support, but I really dislike the condensed look of everything in the settings app, discover, and most of all in Dolphin.

Are there any discrete, simple, clean themes that have more padding ? I like how GNOME looks but I really dislike their slow development for gaming related stuff.

better gaming support

Just curious what you mean by that?

VRR, HDR, etc.

DRM Leasing too. VR just straight up doesn't work on Gnome.

It does when using X11 but it's a little annoying to have to log out and back in every time you want to play VR

What does VRR have to do with KDE? Or HDR?

DEs ship their own Wayland compositors. Kwin for KDE and Mutter for GNOME. Both have different capabilities. Kwin has support for VRR & HDR, and better color management. KDE Plasma has GUIs to visually configure them. GNOME has almost no support for this, either on the compositor and/or the GUI.

X11 had it's own compositor, the X.Org server. Things changed.

Wayland compositors

As I understand it, functionality like VRR is provided by the DRM driver in the kernel, not the compositor. Hence my question.

KDE now supports those things....

What do you mean?

Lmao, I don't know how else to word this? Here we go...

It is the case that OP wants to use features such as VRR, and HDR. It is also the case that gnome supports neither. And also the case that KDE now has official support for both VRR, and HDR. Thus, OP has made the choice to use KDE, because it suits his gaming needs.

official support for both VRR, and HDR
