Hey folks, I just got Bazzite OS KDE up and running on my PC. Being a Linux newbie, I’d love some tips, tricks, and app suggestions if you have any. 😅 Switching from Windows has been a bit of a maze with all the distros out there, so any pointers would be awesome!

The amount of tutorials out there is overwhelming. Hopefully 🙏 you guys point me in the right direction.

Edit: That is a lot of great information. I really appreciate you guys taking your time to share your experience/advice.

    I can’t find anything similar to Latte-Dock

    Why do you need something similar to Latte Dock? Why can’t you just use Latte dock?

    Apps: I’m looking for alternatives to ShareX, Fan controller, Flow launcher any other helpful tool similar to them.

    FlameShot is a great alternative for ShareX, I don’t really know about Fan controller, but KDE has a built-in replacement for Flow launcher called KRunner. By default, you should be able to launch it with Alt + Space. If not, check the Keyboard shortcut page in the system settings.

      From what I have read, Latte-Dock is no longer being maintained.

          I couldn’t get it working even after installing so went the plamsa kde panel route

              I feel like third-party docks are not correctly implemented. A plasma panel is what you should be using. Thanks (: That was my first-ever try, by the way. I can’t make the background transparent despite selecting the transparent option.
