Plasma 6.6 is all about making your life as easy as possible without sacrificing any of the flexibility

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ml/post/43288310

In KDE Plasma 6.6 Spectacle can read texts from screenshots, a new on-screen keybord is available for testing, a first-time wizard was added, current theme can be saved as a new global theme, emoji selector got a new easier skin tone selection, you can now connect to a Wi-Fi network via a QR code, application sound volume can be changed by scrolling over a taskbar button via mouse, and there is much more.

    KDE absolutely ridiculing Windows yet again

    Meanwhile Microsoft broke the fucking Notepad

    Sounds like KDE is also doing a lot of work that will be helpful on phones, nice!

    You can also filter windows out of a screencast by choosing a special option from the pop-up menu that appears when right-clicking a window’s title bar:

    An option to hide windows from Spectacle, when recording a screencast. Admittedly I am not much of a screencast person, but its good to know in case I need it as I have some future plans. So I could have some notes or the web browser open in same virtual desktop I am recording from.

    Oh boy, feature freeze for Ubuntu 26.04 is on Thursday. Hopefully, they still include this update.

    My work laptop unfortunately comes with Kubuntu LTS and I desperately want the virtual-desktops-only-on-the-primary-screen feature on there. Currently, I’m the guy that actively disables all but one screen, because my workflow does not work at all with the secondary screen switching in sync with the primary screen.

    I’m still sticking to Gnome but I love these features and how more polished KDE looks with every update (even though I still think they need to perfect some details). It makes me really happy to know we have these really important projects being libre.
