- different task bar layouts for different activities
- different desktop widget layouts for different activities
- you can associate files with activities and Dolphin has a `currentactivity://` scheme (tho I do wish this could be extended to apps. As of now if you only want an app to be in a certain activity you've got some window rules to setup)
They live in an awkward place, since virtual desktops are a Linux WM thing while activities are just a KDE plasma thing.
I am not sure what is interesting in having different task layout but feel free to educate me.
As for widgets, I am still struggling to see the point of widgets (regardless of platform, it is the same for mobiles). Usually if I am in front of my computer screen, I will hace apps opened that will hide any kind if widgets. Or is it for people using 8k 120cm diagonals screens?
This is a step in the right direction, if someone could come up with a simple enough but extensible enough de-facto standard for multiple “profile”, our lives would be immensely enriched.
KDE already had per-virtual-desktop backgrounds before that feature was removed in favor of activities. There is no reason different widgets (both desktop and panel) couldn't have been added to virtual desktops instead.
