I miss real scrollbars. Good chonky ones. Also corners you can grab n drag.

I don't miss the terrible alignment and lack of padding, however. Goddam.

QNX Neutrino? Yeah. I miss it.

That old era was so much more expressive and customisable.

Bro, I'm too young to miss this. I barely remember XP.

Wasn't konqueror a big system component in early KDE? I did some playing around with it and it did way more than you'd expect out of a web browser but still felt rather old and dusty
