it’s not like i can’t do a distro without plasma, i just refuse to xD

have they released an official statement about it?

must’ve been a small window where it notified me then, idk. distrowatch has the release date as 2026-04-23 but i might’ve upgraded in early may as i am not super keen to update when i have a stable system.
i have no issues other than spectacle.

not a fresh install, it offered me the upgrade a couple of weeks ago through discover

rocket lawnchair!

if you are aware of it and its solutions it surely is a non-issue but for me as a linux noob it was reason enough against fedora. getting into linux is already complicated enough without extra obstacles.

i found fedora hard to work with because of its hard “no non-open source” stand. e.g. i had trouble playing a x265 HEVC file with vlc where as i never encountered anything like that on any other distro and solving this was not trivial.
i am on kubuntu rn but if i were to switch i’d go back to cachyos with KDE.

one thing i noticed in trying both is x11 using more cpu in the same scenario (playing a youtube video, same resolution) and even the DP adapter i am using getting warmer when on x11 compared to wayland. in this scenario the difference wasn’t much despite being roughly double (~2.5W compared to ~4.5W in x11). idk how that scales in other scenarios.

only the ARM versions

ah ok, thanks! i didn’t make a mistake buying the poco x3 then.

this reminds me of this :

thanks! curiously the poco f1 isn’t even listed on the ubuntu page… only the m2 and the x3. where can i get this information from?

thanks! are you using it yourself? if so in what configuration (RAM-wise)?

one of those snapdragon laptops plus linux for ARM maybe?

starting with kde 6.8 they will drop x11 support entirely: https://itsfoss.com/news/kde-plasma-to-drop-x11-support/

they link the related documents at the bottom and if you hover over the little clock next to a point it shows when it was last updated

i didn’t shit on it, i am on kubuntu rn. i just never heard of it being a thing in the server world.

interesting, i had no idea
