Time to make SDDM greeter Wayland by default as well!
Please please please please…
Ayo no more ugly frame in dolphin, less goooo
Wayland by default
🎉🎉🎉
The Breeze app style has gotten the visual overhaul you’ve all dreamed of: no more frames within frames!
Yeah, it regularly appears in my nightmares /s. Sorry Carl, but I’m gonna have to patch this out. I hope this will get a config option like the change to the Dolphin details view that made the click area to open a file span the whole row (doesn’t look like it’s configurable as of now). I kept patches to undo that for a while as well…
Spectacle has gained support for rectangular region screen recording!
Oooh, I’ve been waiting for that. Very cool! Now I hopefully don’t have to fiddle around with OBS anymore to record a section of the screen.
HDR availability is huge
Is there a way to restore scrollbars to their normal width?
Very dumb complaint, but it’s something I can’t ignore after seeing it: Why are all icons for the sound previews symbolic, but the ones for the notification and USB colored?
Wayland by default
Having an Nvidia-card, should I be worried about this? So far I’ve read so many “Nvidia bad, Wayland no work” posts that I have just stayed clear waiting for a final confirmation that everything is smooth sailing.
On much more recent driver versions Wayland support has been further improved. I suggest going with Fedora Silverblue since RPM Fusion is pretty quick to roll out new driver versions.
None of the issues I have with wayland stem from my nvidia card, and I’m on a gaming laptop.
Seems like one of those ‘lies told so often it becomes’ true kind of deals.
Having swapped to Linux on Pop OS and later onto Nobara recently, I strongly disagree.
As my personal experience on 525, 535 and even beta 545 with a 3080, so much as swapping onto a Wayland session implied lag, screen tearing issues, and stability issues / crashes on KDE and GNOME, to the point that I ended up selling the 3080 for a 7900 XTX because of how everyone said the AMD experience is so much better and it is.
True that I havent tested it on a laptop so maybe Optimus support from Nvidia or the latest drivers have added stability overall, but this was definitely a problem in desktop for the last months to me.
I’ve been using Wayland on Nvidia with plasma for about a year and it’s been mostly fine. Only a few minor issues like night color not working or some Xwayland apps flickering, but the system feels far more responsive on Wayland so it’s well worth it to me
I want to play Diablo 4 in Linux with good performance.
Awesome,.all of it!
Can we now also focus on stabilizing everything? For the past 5-10 years, my personal KDE experience ws either features disappearing (i still mourn my Desktop cube) or just random shit.not working for years. I got to the point where a few months ago I seriously started to consider cinnamon, what are you doing to me?
That was the last couple releases tbh
Wanted to find out since when a System Sound kcm exists, found out that LibreOffice is in some way connected to freedesktop.
Any indication on if and when the desktop cube will return ?
HDR stuff is great to see! Valve’s upstream work on Wayland HDR support is finally coming to everyone
