"… would love to switch to another platform but whenever I try KDE or GNOME my experience is always ‘not quite as bad as Windows’, …"
For more than two decades, I was a huge fan of Apple's OS. Yosemite was the killer, I switched to PC-BSD.
Now, preparing to switch from FreeBSD to Linux:
– whilst I do miss the excellent aspects of Mac OS X, the worst aspects are so bad that I'll never switch back
– I can barely tolerate Microsoft's desktop environment, and that's not because I'm anti-Microsoft
– KDE Plasma ticks more boxes than any other DE.
YMMV :-)

Linux meme: Winnie the Pooh prefers sudo -i over repeatedly using sudo.
They managed to break the padding of the Wallpapers settings pane in #macOS Sequoia 15.4? Shouldn't that be very obvious during regression testing, since it's probably one of the more popular settings? I like switching wallpapers 😅!

A screenshot of the Wallpapers system settings of macOS 15.4 in German. The layout is misaligned because of missing padding.
31 years ago, Geir Ivarsøy and I started working on the Opera browser. A year later we founded Opera Software.
At Opera we wrote all our own code from scratch.
In 2011 I left Opera due to disagreement with investors about the direction Opera was heading.
Two years later, I co-founded Vivaldi to build a browser for you.
So I have been building browsers for 31 years. I think I know what it takes to build a browser.
Our Vivaldi team is for the most part in Norway and Iceland with a few people distributed around Europe and a couple of business people in the US.
Vivaldi is available for your computer and your phone, unless you have a very specific setup. Vivaldi might even be available for your car as well.
We go out of our way to provide you with a browser that matches your needs. I hope you like it.

Did you know there are 12 applications hidden in a secret folder in the System Library on your Mac?
Lesson 1 in #UIUX... your buttons should not be moving targets. Especially if they're toggles.
Look at how if I toggle on "Transactions" and then toggle it off, I am no longer in the bounds of that button. TF?!
I have a feeling this was designed for touch and touch only. It wouldn’t matter there because you lift your finger after tapping…
Interest in LibreOffice, the open-source alternative to Microsoft Office, is on the rise, with weekly downloads of its software package close to 1 million a week as users look to avoid subscription costs.
