I consistently have a problem running Mate Desktop where I have to disable CSD in apps that try to use it by default - off the top of my head, Chrome, Chromium, Firefox and VSCode all have CSD functionality but are unusable in Mate Desktop unless CSD is disabled.
- shmerl 8y agoFor me Firefox seems to be using SSD by default (may be because I'm using KDE), unless I disable Customize > Title Bar. Then it starts using CSD which looks rather bad.

- eliaspro 8y agoA few years ago, some KDE developers invested quite some time in concepts of creating a CSD/SSD hybrid titled DWD, marrying up the best of both worlds. Unfortunately it didn't gain any traction, but I still have hopes they'll tackle this again once all the Wayland work is mostly done. https://kver.wordpress.com/2014/10/25/presenting-dwd-a-candidate-for-kde-window-decorations/ https://kver.wordpress.com/2014/10/25/presenting-dwd-a-candi... https://kver.wordpress.com/2014/10/25/what-if-kde-started-using-client-side-decorations/ https://kver.wordpress.com/2014/10/25/what-if-kde-started-us...
- solarkraft 8y agoIt was a terrible idea, inventing a new GUI toolkit for the window manager the application would have to support (and that they couldn't use with others), instead of just allowing applications to draw in the title bar/have them do their own decoration.
