Finally, there's a GUI to delete orphaned data left in my home after uninstalling a #flatpak app:

""Desktop icons now remember their positions on a per-resolution basis!"
THANK YOU, #KDE!
I'm testing installing Plasma Addons with Discover and I found 2 related bugs and one crash in the first 5 minutes ๐
I love reading changelogs filled with bugfixes and small UI improvements!

"In the Plasma Wayland session, dragging-and-dropping various things to XWayland apps no longer sometimes makes them stop accepting clicks until the system is restarted (David Redondo, Plasma 5.24)"
Oh, thank you! This was such an annoying bug...

Nate Graham has already published his #KDE Roadmap for 2022:

Perhaps it's a bit unambitious, but all the listed goals seem reasonable and desirable changes.
Personally, I would have wanted to see a push for HDR video playback in #Wayland.
Finally #KDE #Plasma 5.24 will default to deep color (30bpp) also in #Wayland:

#GNOME's #Wayland Session Shows Potential For Better Battery Life Than With X.Org

Interesting... I'd be curious to see if the same is true for #KDE #Plasma...
Lots of bugfixes and improvements in this week's KDE updates:

My favorite is a small patch almost doubling Konsole's scrolling performance:

I can't believe Valve is actually launching a consumer device powered by #ArchLinux and #KDE #Plasma!
