    No hating on you, but floating tabs really don’t sit well with me, to the point I use CSS to revert them to regular tabs in Firefox lol

      Because the programming language I actually know is python, in c++ I’m currently barely above the „hello world”-level. It also annoys me, but at the moment I haven’t yet figured a way out to align it properly, as soon as I do, I’ll promise that I will align it

    I like the before more. I would also like the color of the active tab to be the same as the area’s backgroud it’s connected to, like in Linux Mint’s default theme.

    Love it, you should probably rename your fork to something like lighter or idk bulb?

      I was thinking about „darkly”, or something like „nightly”, but I like your „bulb” idea, it’s funny

    I like new options. I’d suggest you change the name, though. I still have the regular lightly and I want to use this alongside it.

    I think this is a big accessibility issue. Please let tabs be tabs. This design seems too similar to Firefox’s new design where it’s hard to tell which tab is active (specially if you have only two open). I feel like tabs should be attached to the viewport/content otherwise they look like buttons where my intuition is to click on an active to tab to activate it

        Consider having just two of them. The one which is active actually seems like a button that demands attention. It’s basic design stuff. Tabs denote choices between active viewports, it should be unambiguous always which one is active. These hovering tabs are more like buttons which intuitively ask to be clicked

        Try looking at the comparison screenshots in this repo. Or look up some images of firefox australis. You’ll see how tabs are actually behaving like tabs and are denoting clearly which one is active by linking itself naturally to the viewport

          it seems more like a radio button describing where you are and where you can go, which is just slightly more abstract than tabs.

            Because it works like that, but in the traditional way, not all corners are rounded, and there’s no margin in the bottom.

          You should try installing these dependencies:

          cmake extra-cmake-modules kdecoration qt5-declarative qt5-x11extras kcoreaddons kcmutils kcolorscheme kconfig kguiaddons kiconthemes kwindowsystem

          I’m not familiar with gentoo’s packaging system, so I can’t tell you what command should you use, but if you find a way to install it properly, you can help the project by writing a segment to the readme about the installing of dependencies in gentoo

      Lightly half works for me on Plasma 6 following instructions on the qt6 version on GitHub. The window decorations and Lightly-related aspects of the plasma theme work, but I can’t apply the application style.
