| Funny rant. But honestly, I'm not sure those are valid points. KWin remembers windows settings. If it doesn't for you, you maybe used a switch that disables that (even I would not know where this switch could be). If you have some apps that try hard to use their own placing policy (which KDE apps don't do), there is always the override in the window rules right there to be turned on… Configured settings never change randomly on updates. It may be that new defaults are set, and in case you've never touched the affected setting it will use its new default thereafter. But once you set something by hand, it will stay so. Forever. Audio just works. Since many years now. At least if you don't touch it to hard… It of course automatically remembers settings OOTB. I have a setup with Bluetooth speakers, build in audio, and headphones, internal and external mic, and I had never issues since years. Powering the Bluetooth speakers on or off automatically switched profiles, and also always restores the profiles flawlessly. It's still PA, as I'm not going to switch until Debian does so by default. (That's actually always a very good strategy regarding any new shiny things in Linux! It will save you a lot of trouble.) All the described broken things sound like "a distri thing", to be honest. If it's a Ubuntu derivative I would not even wonder… |
