    99% positive. Wayland works flawlessly. HDR didn’t cause issues (all AMD hardware).

    The only issues I have off the top of my head are

    1: Some icons in the system tray and system settings menu (the ‘Clipboard’ icon on the dock and the ‘Touchscreen’ tab in settings, and a couple others) display as a blank rectangle sometimes. Other times, they display as they should. Haven’t even bothered looking for a solution as it doesn’t effect usability in the slightest.

    2: Certain pop up menus for dock applets, ie the Bluetooth applet, display incorrectly. I actually saw a post of another user having this issue, where the window only shows as a small square, and can require a re-log to actually make it work.

    Other than these minor glitches, nothing has given me any issues.

    It’s like al KDE projects IMHO. Good on the surface and works well. But use it for any length of time and you will find problems, unfinished areas, or parts where it was implemented without considering why it was like this in the first place.

    For example, plug your 1080p laptop into a display with 4K and watch are your desktop icon gets sorted by a-z randomly instead of keeping the order you had it.

    Or try to add a calendar even to your system by clicking the calendar which is found in the date and time on the taskbar.

    Online accounts added to the system do not integrate into other KDE apps requiring additional signin.

    I feel this is probably caused from KDE’s team being small, but having a large suite of apps.

    I recently switched from being a long time GNOME user over to KDE Neon. It has been a nearly flawless experience.

    My biggest complaint so far is the lack of NFS support in Dolphin, which I use for my NAS. GNOME Files had native support for NFS. Now I have to manually mount from CLI and then it’ll show up in Dolphin (eventually I’ll setup fstab, but haven’t done it yet).

    It works fine for me. Not on wayland but that’s down to my Nvidia card and I hope explicit sync will sort it out.

    working very well for me, and the most thing that i notice is scaling at 125% now not being blurry.

    Really needs more stability and to solidify its modifying features, not have them a bit everywhere. Really cant have a black screen bug every time I put my PC/Laptop to sleep

    Fixed most of my problems with Nvidia+Wayland. I still have to keep the explicit sync patched Xwayland around until it gets a new release, but other than that it works nearly flawless.

    Why can’t I inline two tab bars? I want a center island with a task manager and an island on the right with a system tray.

    Otherwise it’s peachy.

    Hi! I currently am on LMDE with Cinnamon (after trying a lot of distros and DE). I use laptops and so I am curious about trying wayland, which can offer a better experience with gestures, as far as I understand. Gnome is cool, but it is not flexible and I don’t want to install extensions over extensions. So I am thinking about KDE 6, again. I like it but at a certain point it drives me crazy. There is always something that doesn’t work well. Maybe it’s because I change too many things. I don’t know. Anyway, is it true that KDE 6 is not really stable yet or its stability level is simply the usual one?

    Anecdotal, but for me worked a lot better with my monitors (both the same exact model though). On plasma 5 they had trouble waking up after suspending

    Mostly positive althought there has been no shortage of bugs. That said, when I did a clean installation (not an upgrade), most of them disappeared, so I guess I’d recommend a fresh install. I still wouldn’t say it’s as stable as Gnome or Cinnamon, but the trajectory KDE have been on when it comes to making their DE less janky has been amazing recently.

    There’s been a lot of subtle UI improvements that make KDE feel a lot less disjointed, although you still see it here and there.

    The improvements to the overview (Gnome activities view clone) are great.

    Compared to the absolute shit show that was Plasma 4 and 5 for their initial releases, Plasma 6 is amazing. It’s still not my DE of choice, but I keep it on one of my systems just to see the progress.

    Only issue for me is that the KWin scripting API doesn’t work the way it did so my custom shortcut doesn’t work.
