I'm pretty sad that they named it KDE Connect instead of just Konnect

[–] [email protected] 34 points 5 months ago (3 children)

They have so many missed opportunities for things like that, like why isn't spectacle called spektacle

[–] [email protected] 23 points 5 months ago

My vote goes to Kpectacle

Because at the same time plasma succeded kwin and dolphin konqueror, the kool naming scheme became optional. The snipping tool used to be Ksnapshot, which was at least obvious naming in what it did.

Man what does "snipping tool" even mean

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I don't like this word either, selective screenshot or sth...

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

Screenshot. With features thats it imo

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

snip /snĭp/

intransitive verb

  1. To cut, clip, or separate (something) with short, quick strokes.

How the heck is that related to screenshot

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago

It's usually combined with a rectangle/window selection, thus clipping a part of your screen into an image/clipboard.

I'm still mad that they renamed Kalendar to Merkuro

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Also, Kalendar you can guess what it is... Merkuro? No idea

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

To be fair, its full name is actually Merkuro Calendar, but it's fucking stupid

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Does Merkuro mean something in another language? Like Krita means Crayon in...Swedish? Norwegian? Scandahoovian? And for some reason they didn't call it Krayon?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

I couldn't find anything

It would make more sense too since it can be used on almost everything, which I applaud (using it on macOS).
