Curious as to your preference and if you have any reason other than aesthetics.

Update: After making this thread I ultimately decided on neither. Loving the left side option on Kubuntu.

    I use workspaces and tiling windowmanagers to organize my programs. Actually, I feel like I know what is going on with my computer a lot better than with a taskbar. No windows hidden behind others, no need to cycle through long app lists with alt tab. I know my code is on workspace 2,so I go there when I need code. Same with spotify on 4, Discord on 5, browser on 1, etc. Terminals and other windows added as needed.

    Also, a side note, a taskbar is a really sad excuse for a list of things that are running on a computer.

      It’s a great excuse for a list of active windows though. Which is what you interact with. Having to remember which workspace is on what is the worst.
