Spectacle (the snip tool) is way better
Window tiling is better
krunner can search color codes now
sudo password prompt darkens background like in windows
improved drawing tablet support
system monitor has improved layout
and they implement the following wayland protocols:
“Relative tablet dials”, “idle notify“, “color representation”, “FIFO”, “toplevel tag”, and “single pixel buffer”

Plasma is the best most friendly coming from windows. Also it's a complete suite for Linux. No need to tweak every shitty part of OS. I get some folks want to do it. But some people just want things to work

You can't make this shit up

I literally have a brave browser with 21 tabs open and a youtube video playing in the background, 2 Zed editors, a bunch of terminals and a few smaller programs, and the line nautilus opened, and this is my CPU (AMD Ryzen 5 5500U, not even a powerful one)

HOW IS KDE USING THAT MUCH CPU FOR NOTHING???

>>105620995
KDE takes pride in making retro computing UI design. They are always trying to make their OS look like you are exactly 20 years in the past.
Can't wait for when they discover flat/metro UI.

Cool
Have they fixed adaptive sync shitting itself on high refresh rates and artifacts on wayland while using fractional scaling?

>>105621108
when and where has that happened?

>>105621117
Now and on any of the mayor distros with Plasma 6 through 6.3.5
I have a 360hz monitor and unless I set it to 240hz I cannot use adaptive sync on auto or enabled without experiencing either flickering/frameskipping or the monitor blanking out.

Also artifacts
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=502322

>>105621143
Oh well nevermind about adaptive sync
https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kwin/-/commit/22fd115a3cd47e31de9e08b56adeb15f6cfc33c1
Gee it's like it's actually broken

I bet spectacle's behavior when taking screenshots with hotkeys is still broken.

>>105621143
I use 1.25x scaling and it works fine. maybe it's an issue with the Cyrillic character set

>>105620172
Even for the 80s they could have tightened up the grafix.

>>105621054
Wait, are we wasting energy that comes from non-renewable sources to make the part of the desktop that we are not even using look like dirty glass?

>>105620169

I was gonna say this. KDE seemst to be hell bent on trying to be as old fashioned and cluttered as possible.

>>105621166
Unused CPU cycles are wasted CPU cycles!

>>105621206
No, it's like an engine. Why would you drive in second gear with max rpm just because "unused rpm is wasted rpm"? You are using more energy for no reason.

>>105621173
That's because they're based. KDE is unapologetically for the high IQ, unlike modern dumbed down smartphone style interfaces

>>105621231
>dumbed down
I love how KDE users perceive something easy and simple to use as bad. The QtJew did a number on your minds.

>>105621267
what exactly isn't easy?

>>105621166
Unitonically yes. Kde blur is very inefficient that's why the Korners bug stayed for so long, having it curved would kill the CPU in seconds. And on top of blur they add another layer of "contrastic" blur.

>>105621278
Brother, I used KDE. Your settings app is comically bad. One time I fucked up something by trying to install a theme, and after trying to fix it repeatedly, I asked for help, and the people at KDE just said, "bruh, just reinstall your OS"
There is a ton of settings that NO ONE uses, but hey, if there is an option, there is a config®
>>105621288
I have no words for this.

>>105621415
the settings app seems pretty usable to me
you do have to be careful installing custom themes though. they aren't QA'd at all and some of them are built for ancient versions of KDE
I just use the built in ones

>>105620149 (OP)
thank god arch with kde is my daily driver. even still supports x11

>>105620149 (OP)

>>105620873
They honestly deserve the money, KDE is the best DE on any OS

>>105621267
Its always a tradeoff, simpler ui = less upfront functionality.

aka, if I have a window with 100 buttons , that all do different things, vs a window with 10 buttons and 10 pages to access the same items, which is superior?, the first option is always going to be faster than the second one if the user is capable of handing it. the second option is going to be less confusing but requires more interaction.

does plasma have anything to make windows self tile like in a TWM?

What's with the sudden trying to paint KDE as old-lookind in this thread?
It looks really modern out of the box and isn't that cluttered
Is it the really shitty looking announcement screenshot?
A samefag schizo? Ebussy alts? AI?

>>105626094
It's also very obviously fully in the modern flat design language just like gnome which makes these posts all the more confusing

>>105626094
It looks modern in a bad way and is pretty cluttered, a minimally riced xfce will always look better

>>105626094
I think they're microsoft shills

>>105626132
xfce isn't modern THOUGH

>>105626094

lolno. 5.27 was far more stable and polished than plasma 6 shit has been.

>>105621173
if this were true i would be using it

>>105620149 (OP)
great, but can you please fix IME support across frameworks so I can japanese in my wine apps or even in firefox? it may suck ass to use gnome but it sucks less ass than typing out something in a supported text editor and having to copy paste that into your app instead of just typing into the app like it's always worked

>>105620149 (OP)
what the fuck is a plasma, is there others non-plasma KDE ? why it's not just KDE, wtf.

>>105626300
The only time kde6 was krashing was in the very early versions
Right now it's light years above kde5, almost 0 krashing from my experience

>>105626360
>The only time kde6 was krashing was in the very early versions
i'm still tracking plenty of bugs that didn't exist in plasma 5. they may have fixed the worst of the bugs, but there's still plenty of ongoing polish issues
>Right now it's light years above kde5
how so? other than wayland (which has its own set of annoyances) having better multi-monitor/hdr/hidpi support, it's the exact same shit as plasma 5, just with regressions.

>>105626387
I was talking about crashing only, and from my experience

>>105626360
>almost 0 krashing from my experience
>almost
so it krashes

>>105626387
In my experience there's currently far more fixes than regressions. UI polish is lacking per ushe but I'd rather have a useful ugly thing than a polished turd.

>>105621108

NGMI

>>105626403
About the same amount as gnome, windows, xfce, etc.
So once in a blue moon

>>105626393
frankly, i never experienced much krashing on plasma 5 either. just the early screenlocker breaking bugs which, funnily enough, plagued early plasma 6 even worse. the fact they even released such broken, unusable garbage was honestly shocking. anyway, my problem is really with all the minor bullshit k'bugs, those irk my autism to no end. 5.24 was roughly when they started to seriously stamp that shit out, and i would say 5.27 was nearly perfect. then everything went to shit again with plasma 6.

>>105620349
your fault for using pajeet coded widgets
speaking of which. do they sandbox that shit yet or what?

>>105626433
well I don't use KDE, all I know at the moment is that there's been a bug in Krita for months that makes it segfault on X11 when you copy/paste something into an image. annoying as fuck especially because I love Krita, I'm forced to use GIMP at the moment and I'm really NOT enjoying it

>>105626422
X11 will always be deprecated, chud fork or not

>>105626461
just switch to wayland

>>105626479
I'd rather kill myself

OLD BAD NEW GOOD
Footfags, windtoddlers, macfags absolutely grasping at straws that it's almost the perfect mixture of form and function.
As close as it gets to XP/Vista/7 today as far as UI goes.
>>105626286
What do you think looks good then?
Windows 11 is aight in its UWP bubble and the leftovers from 1993 onward are blended in reasonably well enough. It's too bad then it's all barely working jeetcode in perpetual beta since 2015 ooor maybe I'd use it. Maybe.
Don't try and mention Liquid Ass lmao.

If that happens, I'm taking KDE out behind the woodshed and shotgunning it.

Came here to post this. Glad you already did. Imagine boasting about new features while leaving your users vulnerable to potential malware in 3rd party themes hosted on your own fucking infrastructure that every deployed KDE desktop is pointing to. Like I seriously can't wrap my head around the kind of mentality that thinks this is okay. I would hang my head in absolute shame. How is this not a priority #1 bug? How are they releasing ANY updates before fixing their gaping fucking security holes? WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE?
