I’m looking for a launch menu that has similar functionality as the Windows 10 Start Menu. While I don’t think Windows is the pinnacle of OS development, I did find the “Start” menu quite useful in organizing my apps by task group and importance. Specifically, I’m interested in the following features:

  • The ability to resize the menu.
  • The option to create my own application layout in named groups.
  • The capability to create folders with applications.
  • Optionally, the ability to resize various application tiles.

The Cinnamenu applet for Cinnamon comes somewhat close, but it isn’t quite it. Does anyone know of an app, a DE or anything else on Linux that offers these features?

    That isn’t a good idea. You should never install gnome and kde together on the same system. There are often lots of conflicting stuff. Some distros handle it well, but most don’t.

        I have heard good things about how openSUSE handles it.

          Good I’m on Tumbleweed then. 😁

          Seriously, I will test it in a virtual machine.

      They are both so bloated, they can even conflict. 😮
