Hello!

Two years ago, I published a post explaining how to hide the desktop preview banner (https://lemmy.ml/post/8802064). Since then, that flag has been renamed, so I think it's a good time to remind everyone of its existence.

Currently, the setting flag has been renamed from HideDesktopPreviewBanner=true to ShowDesktopPreviewBanner=false in the ~/.config/kdeglobals file, under the [General] section.

~/.config/kdeglobals

[General]
ShowDesktopPreviewBanner=false

Have a good day!
