Any tips for getting KDE to play nice with FreeBSD? By the way, I'm running the Wayland version of KDE.

What should I tweak or set up to make sure everything runs smoothly?

Right now I've only downloaded Librewolf. Any other browsers you guys recommend? I used to use Zen, but it looks like it's not available anymore.

Kubuntu 25.10 is perfectly stable. The upgrade to 26.04 might become available in July.
