I agree, however Windows and macOS are even worse IMO. Everything is just totally inconsistent (Windows) and the window management features are very barebones (both). Using either one feels like going back 10 years or more.
The CSD trend might have some upsides but i find it mainly just makes apps ugly and any added functionality is almost always redundant.
Kvantum really helps make Plasma more consistent, not sure if there is a similar addon for GNOME
Edited for clarity
Apps should only use cad if they are really using the space like browsers with their tab bar. That gnome forces every app to provide them is really stupid.
Gotta love that thing on Windows when you mouse up to hard top right and click to close the window. In some situations it'll focus and close a random window behind the one you're wanting to kill.
Up to macOS 26 (the latest OS with Liquid Glass) consistency was great. Youβd have to go back to the PowerPC era or X11 integration to find issues. Now I have windows with different toolbar button sizes and corner radii and itβs stupid as hell.
I agree on window management tools, but I used third party ones on Mac for a decade and they worked okay. Obviously not as good as i3 type ones.
Fair. i conflated two separate complaints about two different operating systems
Why do you mention macOS if you haven't used it?
