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.

I use the fullscreen start menu. I can't select search results with keyboard anymore.
Inverting window colors doesn't work for me anymore, after they set the default to wayland. (I used it for app's which don't have a dark theme)
Focus stealing prevention (global setting and window rules) doesn't work anymore.
window positioning guidelines keep flickering in and out of existence all day, even when I don't resize any windows.

You might want to report these. In the last This Week in KDE, it says:

This week we put some of the final Plasma 6.0 bugs to rest, and continued working towards Plasma 6.1

I mean, theoretically, this could mean that they decided these issues are a WONTFIX, but I imagine, they rather just don't know of them.

At least the two I care about most already have an open issue in the bugtracker, which I am following for updates.

I'll search for the other two when I am bothered enough and report them if they aren't

I'm really looking forward to upgrade to Plasma 6, but I'm afraid, that it's still to buggy for my daily use. I think, it has some UI improvements that are really nice, but I don't want problems with crashing (I'm just nervous about Wayland instead of Xorg) 🙄
