    Everything. It doesn’t accurately describe the issue (animation stutter when using an HDD or during heavy I/O) and it doesn’t mention the solution (put the cache folder in tmpfs), plus it obviously follows the traditional sensationalist tone used in clickbait.

    The point is to be deliberately vague to bait people into watching it.

      Okay, but when I have the problem that my KDE is stuttering, I’m not searching for “.cache folder on Low-IOPS Drive causes my stuttering issue”, because, yk, I’d have to know the solution for that. I’d probably search for “why does KDE stutter”.

        If you have a nvme and a spinning disk, and you decide to put your home on the slow storage, well that is quite an odd choice to do. I’m not saying that the stuttering is your choice, but the Linux way is to keep persistent user stuff in home.
