I gave KDE a serious go again recently but it has some really annoying bugs on multi (3) display systems that affect me but probably not the grand majority of KDE users. Reported the issue, debugged it extensively, pinpointed the exact problem in the bug report and how to reproduce it (found out it also happened on dual screen setups). Then nothing happened. Ticket went quiet and it has been several months now.

I also had plenty of crashes in KDE apps.

I completely get the volunteer basis that KDE builds on, and I am not complaining that my issues do not get fixed. I understand it is being mostly built and maintained by people in their spare time and my issues are probably low priority. But for me personally it is stuff like this that makes KDE unusable as a daily driver.

Firefox. I can’t imagine they would do something stupid like this with the little marketshare they have, but nothing surprises me anymore.

Does ublock work with any of these alternatives?

After many years of tiling wms I recently settled on Plasma. I found that tiling causes more issues than it solves (window rules much?!). For me tiling only is useful for terminals but there are other solutions for that (tmux for example).

I had to get used to not being able to do workspace per monitor anymore but now I am using Activities which works really well actually. I am a dev and have a 3 monitor setup, one for logging (bunch of terminals), one for coding and one for the output of the project I am working on (browser).

I also play games for which Plasma is perfect, its xwayland implementation is flawless, even on HiDPI which cannot be said of Hyprland for example.

Tl;dr I like Plasma.

Switched to KDE after many, many years of tiling wms. Bspwm, awesomewm, i3, Hyprland. A few months back I was done with tiling as I found it got in the way more than it was useful for me and often caused issues with games, window placement and other stuff. Installed KDE. Apart from one or two minor bugs, everything just works and works well. I am really impressed.

Excellent initiative.

Easy, your 4090 is made of pure assembly.

If you create a meme like this at least inform yourself on how computers and software work.

I really appreciate the work and time the volunteer devs put in, but everytime I try KDE I have to give up because of some workflow breaking bug. Window rules disappearing into thin air, context menu’s not rendering properly, power management not consistent, widget search freezing, random crashes. the list goes on. This has been the case with every major KDE release I tried and yes I have reported my fair share of bugs but it seems the priority lies with adding new features instead of fixing old ones which is a shame imo.

Yes, this is what spoilt brats do. There is no masterplan here.

Wow that’s crazy. Hope they find the guy.

Wtf. Anyone have the back story on this?

They probably still have usernames, phone numbers and access logs with IP adresses even though the chats are encrypted.

Telegram never or rarely cooperates with authorities in investigations into terrorism, child abuse, drug trafficking, weapons marketplaces, etc. This is probably the main reason they arrested the guy.

Nostalgia. Slackware was my very first Linux distro!

I just did the opposite. Ditched windows which I only used for gaming. The amount of games working in Linux now is amazing, I play a lot of sims and even stuff like headtrackers and steering wheels just work. Sure it’s not perfect and working for everybody but its getting really good really fast.

Games that do not work at all on Linux like Fortnite for example, I just ignore.
