> The nice thing about KDE is that so much is configurable, but finding configuration settings is still a challenge in Plasma 6. For example, the aforementioned setting to scroll virtual desktops is found in the Desktop Folder Settings application, but not in the System Settings application under the Virtual Desktop settings.

My current Linux installation on desktop is from 2016 and everything was configured years ago. Recently I had to install Linux in Virtualbox and decided to go with KDE. I was overwhelmed with settings not in a good way. Maybe when I was younger I was more enthusiastic and liked it, but now I want reasonable defaults and consistent UI/UX experience.

It would be really nice if configuration was scriptable, so that you could have one configuration script, and run it on every new install. Would remove the need to hunt and peck.

What makes you think it isn't? There seem to be old-fashioned config files for anything that you could do in the settings app or whatever.

You don't even need a script - just use the same home folder or copy over the ~/.config/* files. KDE's configuration is all text files.

Check out Nix's plasma-manager.

NixOS?

Yep. I want to have the same config as everyone else to maximise the chance that I'm using the well tested path of the software.

If you want consistency of configuration over years go with FVWM.

I'm kidding (and kinda not), it's a valid complaint.
