So my workflow is typically hit start -> cmd -> enter which I can usually do these 3 actions in less than 2 seconds on Windows. I’ve tried a dozen different distros on Wayland, X11, with and without the Nvidia proprietary drivers. KDE search seems to be too slow for me to do this though. Cinnamon, Gnome, Mate, and XFCE don’t seem to have this problem. Is there a way to speed up the KDE start search or to at least somehow buffer the enter input so I am not stuck pressing enter again?
I may not be as fast as you, but yeah it does work. Then again, I’m not using the default launcher.
I only notice it slightly slower on my intel i5 3rd gen machine. Which is exlected.
Oh what launcher are you using?
It’s called
minimal menu
