On Linux (e.g. KDE), you can simply Ctrl + mouse drag the window, and then click anywhere you want. This makes it even much simpler than the need of clicking on the border, even with larger borders. You actually don't need any window border at all then, or it can be full of other utilities.

There is also some software for Windows to do the same.



> You actually don't need any window border at all then

Even if that was a great solution for everybody, you still need a window border. Or at least I do. I need that visual separation from all of the other windows on my desktop, and I need it to be thicker than one or two damned pixels.


My window borders are actually 2px by choice, but it's a nice pink that's fairly noticeable.


I use a window shadow for that. The shadow is maybe 10-20 pixels or so.


Some windows are dark.
