    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).

    Looks really sleek with the new floating panels, and being able to turn a panel into an icon task manger is still nice, and the new overview window is great for workflow.

    However multi monitor support is still garbage. Like 3/4 of programs will never remember their size and position, so you have to make a never ending list of kwin window rules, which then end up affecting other windows you don’t want to. Other things like right click menus will show up on the wrong monitor way off in a corner get old real fast. Its like the cartoon spiderman meme of 3 Spiderman’s pointing at each other. Qt6, Wayland, and kwin all pointing the blame of why its like the way it is, while bug reports rack up another year of no fixes.

    HDR having a toggle and working is really nice, but when it was on and I booted up a game, the in game options wouldn’t allow me to turn on HDR.

      That’s Wayland specific isn’t it? X11 behaves a lot better in that regard
