I added diacritics support to Plasma Keyboard!

https://merritt.codes/blog/2026/03/13/2026/_plasma-keyboard-funding-diacritics

Now I can more easily write German words as I continue learning it, such as: über, schön, and Straße!

Also, I can sprinkle my lovely symbols in my writing without having to resort to the compose key or copy-pasting — isn't that great‽ 😁

Plasma 6.6 is now live!

In Plasma 6.6, Spectacle can read texts from screenshots; we trial-run our very own on-screen keyboard for touchscreens; and we have a new first-time wizard that let's users configure their passwords, timezones, keyboard and networks, on preinstalled systems; among many, many more marvelous things.

Also don't forget the new feature that allows you to turn whatever modifications you have done to the looks of your desktop into a global theme.

Or how you can change the intensity of a window's frames; or...

So much to pick from

I am very serious about my user experience

arcsin, arccos, arctan and arccot should not be called sin-1, cos-1 etc. respectively

It just does not make sense to me, because it implies they are the inverse functions of sine, cosine etc., while they are just not

arc functions are the inverse of different functions with a restricted domain, as sine & co. are not invertible

On top of that it makes it ambigous if one meant arcsin or 1/sin(x)

Draft code submitted to KDE Plasma turns it into a full VR desktop

A developer has submitted a draft to the KDE team for KWin to hook up a full Plasma VR mode and it looks pretty awesome.

I have updated my cinny material you userstyle, this is a big rewrite, which fixed a lot of bugs.
I have added more styling to follow the guidelines even more closely and I have also added in some expressive goodies.
Enjoy!
