Unfortunately for Microsoft there aren't any big UI or UX changes in Plasma 6. Guess they'll have to wait to steal ideas for Windows 12.
- Unfortunately for Microsoft there aren’t any big UI or UX changes in Plasma 6. Guess they’ll have to wait to steal ideas for Windows 12.
  According to a Win12 screenshot from October 2022, Microsoft has been copying macOS's floating dock since before KDE decided to also copy that. Amusingly, in the merge request for the Plasma change, this was even pointed out:
  
  Luckily it's still Plasma, so such needless changes just for the sake of looking like macOS are customizable and can be easily reverted by us users.
  
  Then we unfloat it again...
  
  since before KDE decided to also copy that.
  Quick search says that floating deck looks like default XFCE panel. How they correlate?
  
  UX trends be like: "You'll float too!" 🤡

And Apple as well should toss their stage manager into the trash and implement a clone of forge GNOME extension.
- Shame the extension seems to be on the verge of becoming abandonware...
  
  😳really? So then I maybe have to look for alternatives ASAP, it feels so wierd if I use Linux without it.
  Maybe one of those does the trick: https://lemmy.ml/comment/7678755

MacRosoft OS 11
- KGB has been notified about leak of Rosoft OS

we are waiting too...
- Me want wayland improvements

I've seen the sneak peek of windows 12 (if that were true), it looks like gnome I think
- None of it is ever real. People post a ton of “concept” previews, that never look anything like the final product, because M$ are more concerned with selling your data, than making a functional OS
  
  “You will love the cloud and we will sell everything you upload to it. You won’t own your data, OS or hardware when we are done.”
  
  I'm still waiting for the Libre Office citrus UI... Although LO did manage to get their version of a ribbon into it. It's still not quite there for me, though. Their icons are not as good and I get lost in their design choices.
- Windows 12
  
  Bing logo in the corner, this is confirmed legit
  
  oh my god, they're trying to accommodate for screen touch users too, I'm getting windows 8 flashback here
- Doesn't matter that much how it looks. It will be equally annoying and disturbed compared to windows 11, or worse. :)
  Microsoft stopped making operating systems for the user a long time ago.
  
  This is what happens if you let the services team design the OS, same is happening on iPhones as well, to be fair. On iPhone, it is just a little more decent.
- Looks more like plasma 6 than GNOME to me..
