that's what I really like about KDE, there is a lot of configurability.



DISCOVERABLE configurability. Things I can find in the UI. I hate the universal "add this line to <obscure config file> to fix that" thing that's prevalent in Linux.

Having a gui for settings helps with not having to memorize in what forsaken directory an application keeps its config files, because apparently that's not standard. Is it in .config? Or maybe .<app name>? Maybe /etc/thing?


I think I have 5-6 things I configure on a new KDE installation, but I'm sure they're different things to everyone else.
