Fedora KDE Defaults (Minor Tweaks & Improvements)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all,

Hope everyone is doing well. I'm writing this email to share a few ideas on how we can make Fedora KDE an even better out-of-the-box experience than it already is. To put it simply, there are a few eyecandy tweaks to be made and this would transform the already decent experience.


GTK Theming

Since KDE Plasma uses Breeze and the colour scheme can be reflected on both Qt and GTK applications, the GTK theme, "breeze-gtk" is a good to have by default. This would make OOTB theming much more consistent and would eliminate the step of downloading it later.


Fonts

I think we can use a smoother and cleaner font. The default one works but we can do better. What about using Fira Sans, Roboto or Cantarell? The first two work really well in Plasma and look nice in GTK applications too, Cantarell is also good as it is included by default.

Typography is very important, by using a nice font face while keeping it "free as in freedom", it would improve the overall user experience.


That's about it really. Overall this is a solid distro, if we can implement these two things, I think the overall experience can be much improved. I was thinking of proposing the idea of using LibreOffice over Calligra suite but using them both, I can't complain about the KDE alternative. Keep it up folks! :)

If I can help with anything, please let me know.


Best regards,

Berk
