KDE:
Microsoft has blatantly copied us in Windows 11, and as a result, people are starting to see Plasma as a cheap clone of Windows again. (...) Making the panel float by default provides an immediate visual differentiation from Windows 11 and we hope this will help jolt usersβ brains out of βew, itβs slightly different from Windows 11β mode and into βwow, this is new and cool and I wonder whatβs in itβ mode.

Microsoft:
Microsoft is preparing to launch Windows 12 (...) with several new design ideas, including a new desktop experience with a βfloatingβ taskbar. Microsoft wants to create a floating effect for the taskbar by separating it from the desktop and rounding off the edges.

My greatest advice to those concerned: Start archiving. If you come across something you believe is valuable: make a copy.
If you follow a guide on how to install and configure software and you found it helpful: make a copy.
If you come across a video you really enjoy and find yourself coming back to again and again: make a copy.
If it means anything to you: make a copy, or you'll wish you did.
@eniko I sometimes get around to making small games, and recently released a game that I have wanted to make for some time called...Sometimes!
It's available for free on itch.io!

@ocornut EU cookie law is not the problem. You don't need to ask for consent for essential cookies, like the ones that store your login session ID or the shopping cart in a web store.
Every time you see the cookie popup, it's about selling your browsing data to third parties.
We see these popups everywhere and the reasoning is "the EU did something stupid", but it's the opposite. They caught the thieves red-handed.
"We value your privacy." Yeah, no shit. By putting a monetary value on it.
