From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

What isn't? Most of it doesn't work under Wayland.

Which parts specifically? I don't have any issue with my window rules, though when I set them now I can't just got from the window menu and set rules, I have to re-detect which app I'm editing (idr the button name bug it's in the bottom right)

The last one which I tried yesterday, was forcing window decoration on window.

I set firefox pip windows to stay above everything and that works fine.

But like what?

Have you reported bugs? They're working hard on fixing all the issues, but they gotta know about it :)

I have reported and/or commented on existing issues when plasma 6.0.0 rolled out on arch and there has been no work on them as far as I can see.

I even asked in the matrix dev rooms.

They were not even triaged. So some describe the same issue multiple times. Check the ones which had activity in 2024:
