So Plasma has Activities, which is something I noticed a while back. I haven’t really found any use for it other than maybe having a different desktop layout so I was wondering what everyone else used it for.

No shade to the people who added it, just curious.

    An easy one is “Personal” and “Work.” I havent figured out how to combine it with Firefox profiles yet, but basically: instead of having to have two entirely separate user accounts, you can have Activities instead, and can hot-toggle between them.

      I mentioned this in my own top-level comment, but I just use different browsers for work and personal. Firefox for work, and my distro’s fork for personal. That keeps those nicely separate.

      I would want personal and work separated as users, though. Work requires proprietary tools I don’t want to give read access to my personal files. And not being able to hot-toggle between them is a feature.

        School and personal then. Or gaming and general. Or combinations of them. If you do hobby programming, you could have “dev” as one.
