From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Why do you need something similar to Latte Dock? Why can't you just use Latte dock?
FlameShot is a great alternative for ShareX, I don't really know about Fan controller, but KDE has a built-in replacement for Flow launcher called KRunner. By default, you should be able to launch it with Alt + Space. If not, check the Keyboard shortcut page in the system settings.
From what I have read, Latte-Dock is no longer being maintained.
It's not longer maintained by the original developer, but apparently the KDE project picked it up and it should still work, just like it did before
I couldn’t get it working even after installing so went the plamsa kde panel route![](https://lemmy.ml/pictrs/image/3d20494a-8931-4a1c-94e0-11d17a30c644.jpeg)
I also the normal Plasma panel, don't have any issues with it. They added quite a few Latte Dock features to the normal panel. Your desktop looks great btw!
I feel like third-party docks are not correctly implemented. A plasma panel is what you should be using. Thanks (: That was my first-ever try, by the way. I can’t make the background transparent despite selecting the transparent option.
This might happen because of your theme, what Plasma theme do you use? Try the default Breeze theme to see if it fixes the issue.
