like sure, it's an interaction of the mouse/touchpad with the desktop or display, but mentally I think of these settings as primarily being properties of the desktop or displays that the mouse interacts with
I also noticed the amount of flatpaks is heavily reduced. At least what is displayed. I still have a screenshot, where my user Flatpaks are 50+ and system like 60+
And I didn't uninstall stuff. I got even more Flatpaks by now.
Check on System Configurations - Mouse - Screen Borders, there is a new option at the bottom called "Edge barrier", which is a pixel distance the mouse must travel before it can cross screen edges. It defaults to 100 px
Use Ventoy, you just install it on the flash drive, then you can just put the images inside it, both for Linux and Windows, itś the easiest way to make a bootable flash drive
Ventoy is an open source tool to create bootable USB drive for ISO files. With ventoy, you don't need to format the disk again and again, you just need to copy the iso file to the USB drive and boot it.
So Isee a note its not recommended to rebase between plasma and gnome I'm assuming cause they will fight over configs but if I was in theory going to do it just to do testing and what not would setting up like a plasma only and a gnome only user help?
gnome apps are missing, your GTK theme is wrong, you will experience random bugs, I have put a note on your account to not dedicate time helping until you've made a new user or reinstalled
