  • Yes, but keyboard-only is not the “top priority”, now that everyone has a mouse, and everyone uses a GUI.

    I’m on KDE Plasma. Dolphin is the file manager. F2 to rename. No shortcut to move selected files to a new folder, so I use the arrow keys, and that little key next to right Ctrl that I can guarantee you’ve never pressed. Eventually, the workflow breaks (when I have to go back to the web browser), if it wasn’t already clear that this isn’t how Dolphin was designed to be used.

    I’m not necessarily trying to outright kill the mouse, but I’d like to keep to a workflow going when I’m using it–hence, why I’d need a fundamentally different setup. If I’m keyboard only for a portion of some task, I’d like to keep to that for other portions, if at all possible. It’s just faster and more consistent.

    So, I’ve come for recommendations on software. I’ve already seen quite a few suggestions that I’ve never heard of, and I’ll be trying a lot of it.







  • The build is comedy.

    Ryzen 9 9950X

    Radeon 7900 XTX

    4TB SSD

    64GB RAM

    4k120hz TV. That’s something I didn’t mention–this is a living room build. The ultimate infodumping experience.

    It’s important to note my current system is a MacBook (emulating retro), and a PS5/Steam Deck. My PC at work is an old desktop running Arch (I experiment in my free time). This is why I’m doing a build. If your card is only just starting to fall behind, I’d wait until next generation. It’ll save you in the long run, which I think matters more than anything.
