Still not updating until you let me keep my taskbar where it is.

[–] whostosay@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Are you referring to the centered taskbar?

Well shit now I'm more curious. Care to elaborate?

My taskbar is laid vertically along the left edge of the screen, so I can have full ungrouped small-icon text labels for every application. Monitors are wide, horizontal real-estate is cheaper than vertical.

Right edge of right monitor user here, good taste

[–] Pxtl@lemmy.ca 5 points 2 years ago

Technically I do left-side-left-monitor, right-side-right-monitor, left is primary, right is chat.

Probably on the side of the screen, which is also where I like it. This change was actually a tipping point for me to give Linux another chance for daily driving.
