Effects like Wobbly Windows and Magic Lamp are still in KDE waiting for you to come back :-) Those are built in, and more effects are available for download from the settings window at the click of a button.
I really appreciate the sense of whimsy that comes with stuff like this. Best of all, it is there if you want it and not if you don't.
- CSSer 3y agoHow about the window going up in flames on close?
- tekeous 3y agoWe have that too, it’s called BurnMyWindows in the KDE effects repo
- CSSer 3y agoThat’s such a blast from the past. It may seem frivolous, but it’s funny what draws a kid in. I spent a lot of time in middle school fussing with drivers to get hardware acceleration to run on crappy secondhand laptops, all so I could play with the cube, wobbly windows, and the flame effects. I had no idea it was doing this at the time, but it helped familiarize me with POSIX concepts that later gave me a jumpstart on my career.
