@movq Regarding https://movq.de/blog/postings/2026-06-16/0/POSTING-en.html:
In my opinion, the KDE 3.5 menu was organized way better than the Windows Start menu. Granted, a typical KDE installation had much more applications to offer, too. So, there was more need to get it right. And it probably was also later in time.
Isn’t Notepad++ and Python cheating!? :-D
Crazy story on the clock’s seconds. I never heard of that before. Neat.
Yeah, UI these days is horrible. (That’s why my own TUIs suck, too!)
@lyse In what way was KDE 3’s menu organized? KDE 1 is the only KDE version I ever used. 😅 We’re talking about this one, right?
Isn’t Notepad++ and Python cheating!? :-D
Well, Python was certainly already a thing back then, but Notepad++ is from 2003, right. I think I used https://www.wintotal.de/download/proton/ at the time? Maybe? I don’t know. 😅
(Lol, but this ended up on HackerNews. 189 comments at the moment. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48586231 hfgl, I’m probably not gonna read that.)
