This week I and many other major Plasma contributors are at Akademy, planning the future and having many fruitful in-person discussions! As a result, probably next week’s post will be a bit l…

      It’s a great addition. It’s a surprisingly powerful aspect of gnome that nobody, not even Gnome, ever seem to talk about.

      They really should place a text file in that folder to explain how it works (and of course exempt it as being used as a template)

      You mean one of those 6 folders that I delete as soon as I start up a new install?

    Just ran through that list of bugs and don’t see my issue that happens all the time. I guess I’ll have to add a ticket.

    My bug is when minimizing and restoring windows (fedora plasma 6 latest version), the first time or two it is smooth, but a few more times and it gets really jerky. It acts like a memory leak somewhere.

    Sharing a file to your device via KDE Connect no longer breaks after the first time you do it until the app you shared the file from is restarted

    Yeeeees!

      Oh thank you, finally. KDE connect has been pretty much useless since its Inception because of these things

    Don’t see mention of fixes for the resume-from-sleep bugs that have been around since at least 6 :'(

    I don’t really get why the KDE guys still insist on this atrocious lack of padding / spacing between UI elements. Even Microsoft figured this out by now.

      Yes, I can’t begin to express how much I love 5 cm of whitespace between every setting on Windows Settings pages.

      Thanks, Microsoft.

            Yeah sorta. First you gotta know what the problem is, good luck getting the average user to figure out the UI looks off because of the padding. Then you gotta know where and how you need to change it to make it better.

            Customizing is cool for power users that like to fiddle with their settings, however it can’t replace good defaults; not that I have anything against the defaults in this case…

      It seems that KDE spend 100% of the development time rounding corners and 0% fixing the multitude of crippling crashes and bugs that plague the software making it unusable for daily computing.

      I don’t think this organisation has its priorities straight.

        You say this in the comments of a blogpost where they are precisely doing that

        Lots of people seem to be using it fine daily

        Maybe you need to switch distro and check your hardware

        Or if you’re getting lots of crashes, contribute code or money to get them addressed. Otherwise it’s clear your priorities aren’t straight
