Tint2 has a clever way of handling multiple desktops: the panel is split into zones, each collecting together the icons representing windows on a particular virtual screen.
Some 15 years ago, CrunchBang was the first distro we saw to make significant use of the Super (“Windows”) key, and its offspring still do: you press Super+T for a terminal, Super+W for a web browser, Super+F for a file manager, and so on, and the Conky display lists nine of these plus a few others.
Both distros offer similar selections of tools: the Geany text editor, Firefox ESR browser, Thunar file manager, VLC media player, and so on.
The sole spot of color in the default screen is the language indicator in the system tray, and those two blue letters stick out like a sore thumb as a result.
It is distinctly more colorful, with a default theme in shades of blue, colourful icons in the main menu, the logout dialog box, and other places.
The KDE team is doing similar, but less obvious, things: it’s removed options such as panels spanning multiple desktops, or tabbed window title bars.
