I admit that I’m a little disappointed I can’t set it as my virtual desktop switch animation, and that it defaults to pointing down when invoked, but I am hopeful it’s just a matter of time on those details. :)
It ain’t quite the compiz/beryl cube, nor even what I remember as the last iteration of the kwin cube, but it’s a step in the right direction!
Exactly, I never had the zoom-out cube, just the desktop switch version, and it was painful to lose. I was so looking forward to that in 6 but no. 😢 The zoom cube is fun too though.
I have noticed you can switch desktops after invoking with whatever keyboard shortcuts you have designated for that. I’m betting we get it as a switcher choice in an update or three…
🤞
What is this cube everyone is so happy about?
Cube virtual desktop switcher. It’s pretty great.
Yeah that reminds me when I was using Compiz in the late 2000’s, until I got bored of it 😀

Idk. I just use a budget rs3m. Sub 30 btw
Why is everyone so hyped about this? As far as I remember the cube has been there since… I can’t even remember, I know KDE 3.5 had the cube but I’m not sure if it existed before, so it’s literally been there for at least two decades.
The cube was taken away from us but it has been brought back in plasma 6
It was dropped from Kwin for awhile. Now it’s back.
Why is everyone so hyped about this?
Part nostalgia, part simply because it became a meme to use it.
I am pretty sure Plasma 5 didn’t have it by default. There might have been a 3rd-party extension, though.
I have setup the cube to a hotkey and only used it to test if it is working. It’s amazing, but kind of useless. :D
It’s not useless. It’s a gateway drug for getting into linux. “But can your windows PC do this?” is a great way to recruit people to try linux ;)
Yes, but not out of the box. 😅
what is the cube ?? so intriguing

Sorry for the straight link, but, this is the cube. The cube is pretty cool
We only accept gay links here, buddy.
Oooh I’ve seen this years ago ! looks pretty cool. It’s basically a workspace switcher.
Of course the cube doesn’t work for me as I have six desktops and as we all know, cubes only have four sides 🙄
It is stupid and evil to reject cubic truth.
That’s not how the cube works…
Plasma 6 has so many fucking bugs. Holy shit it drives me crazy.
One thing is, that when starting Apex Legends, all Windows just suddenly start to loose the understanding on whether they should go below or over a Window when focused. They suddenly go below other windows when focused.
Sound System Notification sound too loud? Well, shit for you, you can’t make it quieter now.
Having two monitors with each a panel on the bottom? After a suspend and wake up, its possible that your main panel or right one just goes inbetween those two Monitors.
Linux users telling you to use their new cool Desktop Environment is always bait.
Fr if I turn on my laptop with a monitor connected, the taskbar will be on the monitor, regardless of the settings, every time. Also Bluetooth definitively died.
I’ve been thinking of switching distros for a while, maybe a fresh install helps?Actua, plasma 5 was exactly as wonky with the panels already, especially when using different monitor setups in office and at home
Well, for me at least Plasma 5.27 did work fine
THE CUBE!!!
I love it!!!
Meanwhile, Manjaro Users on 5.27 in the back:
I want 6
Good that they will receive plasma 6 patched
If I learned anything when using Blender, it’s that the first thing you do is to delete the default cube.
