Plasma 6 Bugs

If you encounter a bug, proceed to https://bugs.kde.org, check whether it has been reported.

If it hasn't, report it yourself.

PLEASE THINK CAREFULLY BEFORE POSTING HERE.

Developers do not look for reports on social media, so they will not see it and all it does is clutter up the feed.

Plasma 6 Release Candidate 1 has landed.

We are less than 50 days away from the final version of #Plasma6.

Along with Frameworks 6 and KDE Gear 24.02, the Megarelaease on the 28th of February will be one of the biggest and more complex upgrades in KDE's history.

One more RC will be released on the 31st of January and then it will be (hopefully) clear sailing until the final release.

IMPORTANT

Please note that release candidates, although often called "sneak peeks", are still work in progress and must be installed and used with extreme care. They will contain bugs, some of which may still be critical. Do not use this software in production environments. Use for testing only.

5 came out... TEN YEARS AGO. I would not call that break neck speed that would give you update whiplash.

I read on Mastodon that the tablet support was subpar as of a month ago. Is it still ? see https://mastodon.art/@raghukamath/111566624907293129 There seem to be quite a few regressions linked to Wayland if I understand correctly

Eventually, I guess. Plasma 5.27 didn't make it until last November tho, so it'll take a while.
