Here's a fun one
@BrodieOnLinux Ah yes, because none of those improvements contain fixes for Wayland issues...
@BrodieOnLinux How backward repositories of your distro must be to still ship kde5
@furry @BrodieOnLinux Debian stable I think...
@etenil @BrodieOnLinux I was sure that even debian moved on to kde6 especially when they default to wayland session
@etenil @furry @BrodieOnLinux There's a handy site called repology for that:
https://repology.org/project/plasma-desktop/versions

KDE5 is still in use on Debian stable, LTS Ubuntu, OpenSuse Leap, Slackware ...
plasma-desktop package versions - Repology

List of package versions for project plasma-desktop in all repositories

@BrodieOnLinux Clock widget in Plasma 6
just... it broke when used with 24-hour time and seconds enabled
I'll try to find the issue
480801 – When Digital Clock is on a narrow vertical panel with seconds shown, time gets cut off when using 24-hour time (12-hour is fine)

@BrodieOnLinux Making fun of someone complaining about show-stoppers in Wayland isn't going to help improve Desktop Linux.

If you want to know why people have an irrational hate towards Wayland: This is the reason.

I use Wayland. For me, it works. But depending on your use-cases, there are still show-stoppers. X11 isn't great. But if it covers someone's use-cases, there is no argument that you can make to convince that person to switch if it doesn't work as good with Wayland.

18 months of improvements is nothing on the scale of Wayland's existence, and you can't expect everyone to try monthly whether their use-cases are now covered.

This might be unexpected to some, but some people just want to use their PC as a tool to do stuff. You don't fiddle with your tools for shit and giggles.

@BrodieOnLinux Awww you missed that XeroLinux too moved away from X11 (adding option to re-add it in toolkit though) lol

XeroLinux Moves to Wayland

Wayland by default

@BrodieOnLinux I don't understand why they are arguing in the first place. They will stay on kde5 until their distro version goes eol. In that time wayland keeps improving and and they can simply be happy on their x11 platform and when they finally have to switch, wayland will probably be able to do everything they expect.
@BrodieOnLinux Meanwhile i'm running KDE5 wayland, doing just fine lmao
