    I’m really excited about how great KDE has become in recent years. It was getting scary back when KDE4 had lots of problems and gnome3 was devoid of all functionality. Nowadays KDE makes the Linux desktop truly a pleasure to use.

        I loved the glorious 3.5.x days. What a fantastic DE it was then. I compiled 3.5.0 from source when it was released because it was going to take the Fedora guys too long to package.

      I avoided it for a while because it felt so clunky, but it has really improved in the last decade.

  • I’ve wanted this for a while; when I’m done with my computer, I don’t mind it staying on a bit longer to do this, rather than when I next turn it on when I (presumably) want to do something. Great add!

      You know what else would be awesome? “Update, reboot, and (just this once) automatically login”

      It would be super useful for when I’m alone at home working but want to do updates over my lunch break.

        I think an issue is, this sets up your computer to have a way to bypass putting your password in on boot. If you don’t care about security too much and don’t have things like secure boot and encryption, then that’s bypassable anyways… But otherwise, I’d be concerned about introducing systems that specifically bypass security.
