KDE

Bismuth. Making tiling window management easy. On KDE Plasma. Thanks to this fine person, we have a working Bismuth on Plasma 5.27. It only took the addition of one question mark to the code to bring it to life. Huge kudos to developer. Unfortunately, we will have to build Bismuth from source code. I built a package for Fedora 38, here you go, maybe someone will find it useful! ❤️

Hello! on my EndeavourOS laptop I have firewalld running, and it blocks any kde-connect attempt to connect to my android phone. So I run

sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=public --add-service=kdeconnect
sudo firewall-cmd --reload

as suggested here, and it now works the majority of the time. The only problem it still have it that it cannot connect when the phone is connected to the pc hotspot (created from the network applet > hotspot). Unless I disable firewalld, it refuses to see my phone. How can I fix this? I'm not expert with firewalls, sorry if this is a dumb question :P

thanks in advance!

I can't really find any information on where one would submit a feature request for KDE products -- it seems wrong, to me, to submit them to the bugtracker.

I found this Reddit thread that seems to say that there isn't one, but that post is, as of writing this, 6 years old, so I'm wondering if anything has changed since then?

Does anybody know how I can activate Maliit (Plasma's default on-screen keyboard) under SteamOS Desktop Mode? I have the impression that all my typos are because Steam's provided keyboard (STEAM+X) is not registering key presses correctly and I want to try an alternative.

/usr/lib/maliit exists but all the usual guides I found don't work...

just curious, why does https://krita.org/ is in Spanish, and https://krita.org/en in English?
