Plasma is Finally on OpenBSD (nitter.net)

FreeBSD has supported Plasma for a long time, but on OpenBSD, it's been a long time coming. I believe a KDE desktop hasn't been available on OpenBSD since Plasma 4, perhaps even KDE 3.

Plasma always needed slightly better than average hardware.

Average hardware of which era? Plamsa runs smoothly on a Steam Deck which is artificially power-contrained to preserve battery. Plasma Mobile is for phones.

2012 or so.

It's almost 2024. Plasma runs fine on potatoe hardware by 2023/2024 standards. If Plasma on OpenBSD needs strong notebook hardware, it's OpenBSD's fault for being inefficient.
