I wonder how nicely the upgrade will it play with a $HOME that's been running Plasma 5 for a couple of years.

I guess I should probably backup .config and .local beforehand

Good point actually. I hope this has been thought of. I'm backing up those two, too. Thanks for bringing that up.

Glad to see all the Wayland fixes. Hopefully on the drivers side it'll work out for most people/devices.

Gnome is defaulting to Wayland since years and for the majority of people nothing noticeable changed. Then there are NVidia users...

I noticed two issues actually.

  1. can't open drop down terminal without a window selected

  2. can't use super + $ as my "go to desktop 5" - for whatever reason.

Curiously is there a way to pull up a task manager when kde or Wayland freezes without dropping into a ptty?

Ctrl+t+top/htop?

You can also can try KRunner, alt+space which is suppose to run apart from Plasma itself.

Interesting, thank you, I'll have to check those out.

I think it was Alt+F2 ... Wasn't it? edit: both shortcuts work by default..
