From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Which can also be achieved with locally integrated menus on SSDs. I use this for example. It may not give you the same flexibility as CSDs, but it does reduce the aspect of wasted space.
Now this is exactly the kinda things I want apps to do with the title bar !
I still think more apps would benefit from tailored solutions, but this is the best way to compensate for most apps not caring that I have seen yet.
I would imagine that LIMs becoming more popular could lead to further improvements in that regard, which might actually make more tailored solutions possible at some point. At least KDE already seems to be working on upstreaming this feature in this merge request, so I'm quite excited to see what might be possible in the future :)
