Dear Raspian....

What I wouldn't give for this --

you right click in the address bar of a web site and you have the option to create a shortcut on the desktop with ONE click?
AND, clicking on that shortcut opens your browser and takes you there.

maybe not possible? and yes I know I can write a shortcut myself I guess but don't wanna.

the rest of us just use a bookmark, the star on the right of the uri bar.

I want to go to my desktop and do it one click.

open chrome -- look for the bookmark and where the hell did I put it? -- click it.

Have my reasons for wanting a simpler process. In fact I want to do have a desktop with nothing but
internet shortcuts on one of my PI's.

On KDE, drag and drop the URL on the desktop, and it's done

KDE is a browser? Is that what it's called? Just KDE? -- thanks

KDE is a Desktop Environment.

Install it by:
apt install task-kde-desktop

Then choose Plasma as DE on the login screen

i just remembered chrome/chromium can create apps from websites that you can add to the desktop from your menu..

In Firefox on MATE I can just drag/drop from the URL bar to the desktop, creates a link with the title of the page.

Same thing happens in WIndows 10.

This seems like almost universal behaviour.

in chromium-> menu-> more tools-> create shortcut

puts a launcher for the web site you choose on the desktop. i just checked using youtube.
