A simplified system settings?
I'm an older (in my 50s) macOS and Mint/Cinnamon user but I also know after testing it I would love to use KDE (it's a great DE) if it was not for its billion of settings one needs to navigate through in order to turn off the many visual effects and whatever I don't need that are activated by default, and the few things I need to activate that aren't ;)
Not sure when you last tried KDE, but recently with the update to KDE 6 the settings got reorganised. It's still not great, but a lot better than it was.
Also, iirc, a lot of the visual effects settings are in one panel, though I can't remember what it's called right now.
I keep an eye on it, from time to time (I really enjoyed testing it) ;)
pretty much all of them are in "desktop effects" along with some other similar stuff.
the settings could definitely use some reorganization. the fact that it's searchable helps but you can definitely tell a lot of that layout predates the current function of some of the settings.
