    It's a usability nightmare for me. I sure love it when I open a PowerShell prompt, and some random window takes focus instead for no reason. Or when I create a new folder in Explorer, and the address bar inexplicably steals focus.

    And that right-click menu can take a long walk off a short pier

      That's one thing I really enjoy about Plasma. I never even considered things like "focus stealing" or when to raise windows, but there's options to tweak.

      Heck you can even change what RMB does. (Yeah my brain doesn't need THAT radical of a change lmao)

      The defaults are perfectly sane, but I like that there's buttons or toggles to see if something else works better.

      Seriously. Why?! Who does this serve? It confuses newbies and just ticks off everybody else.

      Also this google-apple-esque trend of trying to glyphize (is that a word? Lol) everything just for its own sake is kinda maddening too. (We don't want literacy to be a bar to clicking ads! /s)

      /rant lol.
