So you are telling me you can always properly infer what the "black boxes" the AI auto-completed for you does without reading the documentation? I bet you are most likely just blindly trusting the AI response and moving on. Sure,

You can use the alt+space shortcut to access the window context menu on any window, even if they are not a gtk/gnome app. At least on my system qt and kde apps still get some kind of ssd decoration that behaves somewhat like the gnome

I dislike how people seem to recommend KDE for power users when GNOME is actually.. great? I'm an old power user/dev and I used to absolutely love KDE 3 for its take on 90s OS UI, I went into v4 thinking it was a major downgrade (
