>make KDE a mainstream option>inmediatly becomes buggy and krashy>have to delay the release twicewill they learn their lesson?
>>108669673KDE has always been a fucking buggy mess, I hate it, it should be wiped off the face of the earth.
>>108669673I don't see why I'm supposed to be upset about this. Fedora KDE 43 exists and works perfectly. I remember not really noticing any difference after upgrading from 42 which also worked perfectly. I'm not in any particular hurry for 44 and I'm glad they're not rushing it.
>>108669811Bigger number better, anonymous. Bigger. Number. Better.
>>108669673use case for learning your lesson?
#Killallqts
>>108669673you can use their wayland window manager with lxqt. There is no need to install the crappy desktop environment.
>>108669673What other options do you have? Gnome is iPad OS and Xfce is too alt-right. Everything else is irrelevant in a professional environment.
>>108669673>make KDE a main option in a distro that matters>suddenly KDE has to fix bugs in a timely mannerThis isn't a bad thing, this will simply hasten the end of the krash era because of a forced culture changeSoon there won't be any valid reason to touch gnome
I do not remember a single krash in Plasma 6. Plasma 5 loved to shit itself at every occasion.
>>108671668because in plasma 6 the krashes are overwhelmingly from shitty distros
>>108669811I need Fedora 44 because it has a newer ROCm version. DaVinci Resolve stopped working on my machine after upgrading to a 9070 XT because RDNA4 needs ROCm 7.x
>>1086696732026 and we still can't get the installer to not shit itself jfc. I mean it's been doing the same shit for 35+ years, just copy the packages to the hard drive how hard can it be?
>>108673093Not sure if you are trolling or just low IQ, you can use the beta.
>>108673146>just beta test it broNo thanks
>>108673141In a vacuum, we got it right years ago. Distros have a knack for fucking it up endlessly.Reminder that the only reason the "yes, do as I say" incident happened was because PopOS's installer lacked features that Ubuntu, the distro it's based on, already has.
>>108673093it'll get here soon anon, don't worry
>>108671616There is no krash era, KDE being buggy is a forced meme by Xfcejeets
Fedora 44 is due for release while Fedora 43 GNOME STILL fatally freezes your computer when you select your timezone on the first boot setup wizardmaybe try not using nigger rigged garbage distros that somehow swindled their way into a positive reputation?I've had browsers on Windows krash on me more than vanilla KDE 6
kde is such a spaghetti piece of shit i have legiyimately never tried it without getting bugs within minutes and the feature bloat and inconsistent UI make it really fucking annoying to useon the other hand if someone is actually maintaining a certain part well you get dolphon which is by far the best gui file manager
>>108677941The krash era existed in the Plasma 4 days but that was a long time ago. Unfortunately 99% of circulating Linux knowledge is at least 10 years out of date.
I am told by fucking ai-slop that on hyprland i need to tinker before i can for example "play vidya" - install x11 for steam, and it will not display or some shitand need drivers for vulkan? I though you get them with GPU drivers etc. How is this true, who is using WM?
>>108669673no. GNOME gods will stand back and laugh as usual.
>>108672995>ABI issue with QML cachewhy the fuck does QML dump non-serialized state and why is it just executing it as is? what the fuck is up with this meme tech? GJS clearly mogs QML I guess.
>>108678764>The krash era existed in the Plasma 4 daysNo it didn't, Pradesh. KDE has always been the best DE. It's why it's the default DE in every worthwhile distro.
>>108679737Don't mix me up with the Indian schizo who refuses to post beef; Plasma 4 overpromised and the default ricing on a lot of distros looked fucked up. OpenSUSE looked fucking amazing on Plasma 4 but then you have something like Kubuntu which was complete ass during the Plasma 4 era.
>>108679944>Don't mix me up with the Indian schizo who refuses to post beefThen hide your posts better, they reek of curry. KDE was always good.
>>108679737yes, up until (((nate graham))) sold it out to (((valve))), and thanks to him it's shit nowlong live lxqt with sonic-win and XLibre!
>>108680260Retard. The whole reason to use LXQt is that it's the only lightweight desktop with full Wayland support. If you're using X11 anyway then Xfce is just better than LXQt.
>>108669673>kde is jeeted>gnome is ebussied>cinnamon is aura farming and absolutely nothing else>everything else is a memeI love Linux.
>>108680956Cinnamon is bland as fuck, KDE mogs
>>108675373Then suffer or downgrade to whatever GPU you were using before.>He boughted before researchNot Fedora's problem.
>>108680277I'd rather go tty-only than use a gtk+ DEalso, lxqt was made to be window manager and compositor agnostic, so if you use it with a wayland wm it works with wayland, while if you use it with an X wm it works with X, tooand since lxqt is all about choice I can't wait till the (((usual suspects))) start attacking it
>>108678847I want GNOME 50 now though. They're improving Nautilus thumbnailing speed finally. This is extremely relevant to digging through huge 4chan folders for jpgs which is one of the most important reasons anyone might use a computer.
>>108669673Apologize to ebussy rn
>>108669673inferior distro momentt. running latest plasma on artix runit and zero issues>>108678764i remember plasma 5 having potential but being full of krashes, now plasma 6.6 is a world of difference. it made me abandon autismwms completely, it's a cohesive desktop experience that doesn't feel like some put together frankenstein and also isn't nerfed to shit like gnome
>>108680956>kde is jeetedProof?
>>108681971Dolphin is the only modern Linux GUI browser that natively does folder previews (folder content on folder icon). Prove me wrong.
>>108683628Fedora is the best distro, confirmed by Linus himself. Everything Arch-based is trannyware.
>>108683965Fedora is the tip of the Linux spear. Whether that's "best" or not depends on the user's particular needs.
>>108669673it's gnot gnu!
>>108673141They keep rewriting it in webshit
>>108683965a fedora is a jewish hatred hat is jewish, too
>>108670295Alt-right UI. Oh em gee

>>108681971doro RAPE
>>1086696895.27 was actually a very polished release, because they spent the last few years of Plasma 5's life focused almost entirely on polish/bugfixes. Unfortunately, having a stable desktop is deeply unnerving and uncomfortable to KDE developers, so they made sure to make it fucking buggy, jank garbage again with the Plasma 6 release (which is only just now starting to get on par with late Plasma 5 again).
>>108685381Blame the move to Qt6. Plasma 7 will be much the same once Qt7 comes out, but that'll be in like 2030.
>>108685381KDE has had decades to get free of (or fork) Qt in order to implement a stable desktop. They refuse to do so, instead choosing to be led around by the nose by Qt Group Plc (Trollech). Maybe KDE is just marketing for Qt.
What is even the use case of KDE? You can get the same aesthetic with xfce, which is also instant and snappy.I swear it's just Steam Deck that popularized this shit DE because it's easier to ship like a Wintard DE clone to be the most tard friendly. That was also still KDE5, KDE6 is so much worse too.
>>108685444>Plasma 7 will be much the same once Qt7 comes out, but that'll be in like 2030.Yeah, unfortunately. Feels like there's no good distro release model for KDE. If you're on a rolling release, you get absolutely raped when a new major version comes out, but later on you actually want the rapid pace of kbug fixing/feature updates that a fast-moving distro affords. Prior to a major release, though, you want to pick a distro you can camp out on for a few years while the next version unfucks itself.>>108685468One of the bugs that's been annoying me is that parts of KDE are capped at rendering at 60hz, because it's a hard cap within Qt. https://old.reddit.com/r/kde/comments/1p26pu0/highrefreshrate_users_were_working_on_removing/6.6 helped with this issue somewhat, but the only way to get a completely smooth desktop on high refresh displays going forward is probably going to be to use a patched version of Qt.
>>108685534>2030 still sounds super futuristic to me>it's in less than 5 years
>>108685534>parts of KDE are capped at rendering at 60hzMany KDE apps are very good, but Plasma itself is kind of horrible. The problem is that KDE apps don't run properly outside of Plasma, e.g. Dolphin.
>>108685534>higher than 60 FPS
>>108685631Funnily enough, GNOME has been much better at high fps rendering on the desktop for a long time now (not counting VRR support which got added recently). Even now that the animations are (partially) fixed on KDE, GNOME feels much smoother. But it's GNOME, so...
>>108678830slop indeedif you're in a working display session, games will work toothe only thing you might have to do on something that isn't a full blown DE is tinkering with window rules because some games might behave weirdly (launching on wrong monitor, being stuck on half the screen etc.)
>>108685631even my shit monitor runs at 100Hz
>>108669811You don't have to be upset but OPs point is Krash DE being the reason for version delays is a pretty pathetic look for everyone
