Why is the search worse?
(lemmy.world)
I think there was a plasma desktop version that changed how the search works. Ever since this happened, the results that really matter are not being displayed first, which makes the navigation slower and counterintuitive.
So....you think....the start menu by default...should be used for searching folders? Am I getting this right?
You hit Alt+F2 (or whatever). That's not the start menu.
And why not? The feature is right there.
If @onlinepersona@programming.dev wants to use it like that, that is their prerogative.
Please check I wrote 'by default'. By default, a new user is going to want to find its existing settings when typing 'settings', not a random configuration folder named 'settings'. I'm all in for KDE configuration and adjusting it to do whatever you want it to. Hell that's the main advantage of KDE. But by default, and for a new user just landing here, the 'start' menu should be to 'start' apps.
I, for one, am not sure what your complaint is about. At least in the launch menu, whatever I type, the search serves up apps first, ready to be run then and there, which makes sense in that context, doesn't it?
...and now we could start working on why OP isn't getting these results. But the first post on this thread was arguing that was not an incorrect behavior and OPs comment was confusing. And i was clarifying there definitely was an issue in his screenshot.
