GeekTalk:
Spending your working day in FreeBSD KDE 6, whilst simultaneously installing the KDE minimal package set on AerynOS.
More detailed reporting in the coming days, but let me assure you FreeBSD also has the latest KDE Gear and Plasma 6.4.4.1., hot on the heels of the fastest KDE spin out there, Slackware. Impressive!
#FreeBSD

#KDE folks, and #UX folks in particurlar, what am I to make of this Dolphin behaviour with #Nextcloud where some have ⮾ and some have ✅ but a hover makes them disappear? Where would I have been told what they do?

Wooohoooo finally!
#KDE

KDE Plasma and applications on FreeBSD 16.0-CURRENT
― 15.0-ALPHA2 FreeBSD Installer, I chose packages (pkgbase)
― then a major upgrade using pkg
#FreeBSD #pkgbase #KDE

This, because my hand invariably keeps twitching and reaching out for the Save button at the bottom instead of at the top of the file picker of #Firefox ->
fixing firefox #gtk file picker to #kde

#kde kmymoney also started to eat data. If Devs turn something from reliable and safe to unreliable and unsafe, the real question of liability comes into play. How can such a thing end in distribution?
Maybe we need to re-organize open source to have a reliable portfolio of applications, a kind of reliable #kde fr…

🖥️ #KDE Plasma default with 17 desktop environments available via elegant installer 🔄 Rolling release model based on #Arch #Linux with enhanced user-friendly tools

They are obviously not far behind, but a bit more a WIP. KDE Plasma 6.4.4 on OpenBSD -current. Exciting to see!
#openbsd #bsd #kde

As expected, the #kde discussion forum is tone - policing my contribution. First there are violent changes introducing a dozen bugs. And then, they expect that you unpack the violin to report nicely the dozen bugs instead of just asking them to revert that shit they produced.
#kde currently turns into perma-alpha …

Today, I finished setting up on my phone #KDE Connect and #audiobookshelf. Both are wonderful ❤️
I remember when back in 2016, after 7 or 8 years exclusively on #Linux, I…

Just tested my FreeBSD KDE Wayland setup on 15-PRERELEASE and it works as well.
The part in my write up about switching to the Latest branch doesn't apply obviously. We're there already 🥳
#freebsd #kde

#kde is doing this disruptive enshittification again. I just last all the connection from my browsers to my kwallet in the semi update from KF5 to KF6.

KDE Plasma: ZFS mount points as devices in the sidebar of Dolphin on FreeBSD-RELEASE:
— is this a new thing, has anyone else seen it?
I'm accustomed to seeing rpool and bpool misrepresented as devices in Kubuntu (a known issue).
I don't recall seeing a comparable bug in FreeBSD before yesterday.
#FreeBSD

IMO the Fall Apart desktop effect in #KDE (Apps & Windows -> Window Management -> Desktop Effects) should be enabled by default. Looks even more cool when an app, or a game, crashes. Save and Open dialog boxes? So satisfying - feels like you are getting work done at an explosive rate 😄

wow, #kde kmymoney, the changes in the interface also resulted in the inability to move transactions from one ledger to another. Gosh, how can a working piece of software be so messed up in one new release?

Great to see Gentoo has moved Plasma 6.4.5 already to the stable repo. Prior Stable was always one major version behind (like on Debian, so 6.3.6) and the latest version was in Testing.
Tells you something about the stability of KDE now. Chapeau!
#kdeplasma6

#KDE #Plasma (ver. 6.4.3) hasn't crashed or hitched or misbehaved even once for the last few days, and has become so feature-rich and easy to use, it deserves a 10/10 thank-you-heart ❤️
(not to mention the mind-blowing software workings under the hood right down to kernel level…

A number of distros are a bit behind, but FreeBSD also has Plasma 6.4.2 in the repos. Hope they get the Wayland session fixed for it, it goes to show they are very much on the front foot here. If so KDE would easily become the nr. 1 desktop in BSD land.
#freebsd #kde

Obviously there's still work to be done in the Wayland session of KDE Plasma 6 on FreeBSD.
Let's see what'd be the best way to 'report' those oddities.
For instance: the volume icon shows and tells a disconnect from the sound service. Nevertheless it's working fine.
Those little niggles 🥳
#freebsd

That is a lot of fun! The update to 6.4.4 is rolling out as we speak, but just to give a first impression.
Plasma 6.4.3, Wayland session, basics installed and up and running. Even Spectacle (was a big issue previously) works well.
Wrapping up tomorrow, I've deserved that cool 🍻 for now.
