Yeah also don’t like the dock, but with KDE Plasma at least you can make it full width as it is so nicely customizable. VM, oooo I wonder how it will run there, I guess it will be quite slow, at least Plasma 5 was a lot slower in VB for me than later on real hardware, so it might not be well representative.
Yeah I hear good things about qemu. Will really have to reserve some time to learn it some day. And just for kicks I have just tried and installed KDE Neon into VirtualBox too, and damn I am actually surprised how fast Plasma runs under it, definitely faster than Plasma 5 did. Another job well done :)
Just to get back to you, I installed it as well and I was surprised how fast it ran.
I couldn’t change the resolution in the VM however. It would only give me a black screen. So I was stuck with a basic small resolution.
I also noticed that you can’t change the taskbar style from floating to fully a docked taskbar that takes up all the space without gaps. That’s a shame in my opinion. But as soon as you open an application window, it does take that “no gap” shape.

I tried a couple recently using qemu. It ran pretty smoothly.

Honestly it’s really easy. Especially when using it with the virtual machine manager.

So not even with setting the Width option to Fill Width and Style with disabled Floating option? (see this picture for refeence)
How did you get to that preference dialogue?I’m dumb.I found how to do it. Yeah you can totally disable the floating feature. It’s much better.
