@kev It's unique to GNOME (and Cinnamon as a GNOME fork). They do not implement support for what is known as "server-side decorations" (where the desktop draws the window borders) using the xdg-decoration Wayland protocol. Every other desktop does, however.

I use #KDE #PlasmaDesktop (through the #Fedora KDE Plasma Desktop Edition) and virtually all applications except GNOME ones use server side decorations and provide consistent access to window management functionality.

It would be nice if Nvidia could fix the "*ERROR* [nvidia-drm] [GPU ID 0x00000b00] Attempt to wait on invalid sync FD: -24" bug that freezes the Plasma panel.

Did Plasma 6.5.3 or another recent version change the Breeze context menu items so they're 1.5x size or something? I would like to change it back but didn't find a setting for it and it's not mentioned in the changelogs.

Just realized that, according to this thread, Diamond version 2.0.3 was the last version of the Plasma 4 Diamond theme, and that version is what I have archived. If you click the link to go to the KDE Store, it returns a 404.

idk what happened but i just updated my system, which took a pretty long while (building qt something or wtv), but once i got in.. the #kde #plasmadesktop seems to have regressed a bit? lol. the obvious ones being the dock, for wtv reason, has jagged edges now in its rounded corners - and it's also pretty buggy where it'd leave some weird extra width that overlaps (idk how to explain it but it's janky). as usual with these plasma panel/dock jankiness, it 'goes away' by moving your cursor to it. don't dig the colours on my dock/panels either, but that might have to do with my applied themes, perhaps needing an update.

Como llevo varias semanas aprovechando el plasmoide Day/Night Switcher y los viernes por la noche no suelo estar frente a mi laptop, tenía rato de no mostrar mi escritorio en tonos oscuros.

En cada Actividad de Plasma tengo un par de fotografías diferentes del amanecer tomadas por mí, estas las ubico en "Trabajo".

KDE Plasma 6.5.2 Improves KRunner’s Search Result Ordering and Fixes Regressions

I freaking love that #KDE Dolphin has a checksum checker built-in. I was shocked that I never knew of its existence, when I first discovered it. Previously I'd need to check each file manually through the terminal.

Anyway, imagine if KDE/#Linux is mainstream - at least among the game modding/#emulation scene, we might be able to see people making/publishing tutorials use this feature to showcase to viewers how their (perfectly legal) so-and-so.iso may not be the same as the OP's so-and-so.iso by showing the checksums.

Pretty niche example lol but it really doesn't have to be. In short, it'd be nice if in any situation that requires teaching/telling people to obtain a certain file (i.e. an app, an update, a script) - we could educate how to easily identify if the files you have are exactly what you need. If something like KDE #PlasmaDesktop was mainstream, it'd be as simple as right clicking your file and inspecting its properties - no terminal commands needed.
