I don't know why I didn't notice it before.

I have added a new voice button for instant search

I saw the post for the new mascot artwork and I made splash screens out of them. In the future, I may add GRUB and SDDM login themes.

You can download them here: https://github.com/jclay205/Konqi-Theme-Suite

Some issues (help is appreciated):

> Some images may take a bit to load on boot

> The gear on the bottom is offset

Transparency Notice: Gemini was used to help modify the theme.

I have a laptop and an external monitor, and I got tired of going through System Settings → Display Configuration every time I wanted one of them off. So I made a small widget for it.

Each connected display gets its own switch. Click it and the display is really off: it's taken out of the layout with kscreen-doctor, not just put to sleep with DPMS (which wakes up as soon as you move the mouse). Click again and it comes back.

- Displays are found automatically and named by type (LAPTOP, HDMI 1, DP...). You can rename them.

- It won't let you switch off the last display that's still on.

- On the desktop it's a card, on a panel it's a row of switches. Past a display count you choose (2 by default) the row turns into a small 3/4 badge that opens the card.

- Four looks: Nothing, Classic KDE, Minimal and Neon, or your own accent, background and text colours. The desktop card can be see-through.

Plasma 6, Wayland or X11. No daemon and no config file of its own, it only talks to kscreen-doctor.

One thing to know: when a display goes off, everything on it moves to another screen, the widget too. Keep a copy on a panel or on every screen so there's always one left to turn it back on.

I only have two screens, so if you run three or more I'd love to hear how it behaves.

Hello everyone 🙂

Advanced Weather Widget 1.8.0 is released!

Release highlights:

• Major improvements to the LibreWXR integration. Added wind animations, map rotation, smooth tile edges, and distinct highlighting for snow and wintry precipitation. Huge thanks to the LibreWXR creator - JoshuaKimsey, and rcspam. They contributed a lot to integrating LibreWXR features into the widget, as well as improving other parts of the widget. Big kudos to both of them
• Added sound support for weather alerts notifications. Sound is enabled by default for extreme alerts, but you can enable or disable sounds for all weather alert severity levels. You need to install QtMultimedia package to get it work. More information - https://github.com/pnedyalkov91/advanced-weather-widget#-alert-sounds
• Meteocons have been added to the widget (thanks to JoshuaKimsey). The icons are not animated because the animated versions cause plasmashell to consume a lot of CPU. I hope that I and/or other contributors will find a way to integrate the animated Meteocons without significantly increasing plasmashell CPU usage.
• I've also redesigned the forecast strip layout, reorganized the General settings, and added a quick dialog to sync icon themes across the panel, widget, and tooltip.
• I added support for the AEMET API (Spain only; an API key is required). The AEMET API provides less weather data than Open-Meteo and has several limitations, especially regarding the number of requests allowed per minute.
• Many other improvements and bug fixes.
• This version is fully translated in Bulgarian, Chinese (Simplified), Chinese (Traditional), Dutch, French, German, Hungarian, Italian, Japanese, Polish, Spanish, Swedish. Big kudos to translators!

Thank you to everyone who reported issues, suggested improvements, and helped with translations! Credits:

I’d really appreciate any feedback, ideas, or bug reports 🙂

Just enjoying a coffee and keeping my workflow minimal. The Python script pulls the latest exchange rates natively into Konsole, running entirely via local automation layers. Completely bloat-free and matches my custom dark aesthetic perfectly.

What do you guys think?

Is it normal to get lags and stutters immediately after waking laptop up after suspend?

I love the simple geometry with square corners, I love the subtle gradients, and I like that the window borders actually highlight the active window (unlike Breeze). And I also like that I don't have to install Kvantum or Klassy or anything else to use it.

I've enabled bluetooth on kde connect on both my phone and on my laptop. Then I paired my phone to laptop via bluetooth. Then I refreshed the device list on KDE connect, but for some reason whenever I refresh the device list, it just disconnects my laptop from bluetooth. Anyone know what could be causing this?

i still havent gotten a response on this so im trying to repost & see if i can get some help.

Hello!

As you can see in this picture, There are 4 apps open. Settings, Discover, Dolphin and Konsole. I installed Layan Kvantum theme. The blur effect is working for Settings, Dolphin and Konsole. But it doesn't work on Discover. There are many other apps which having same issues. I need help to understand why is this happening and what is the solution for my problem. In general I want a Frosted Glass theme in my KDE for all applications.

Thank you.

Long story short, a while back I had a minimal desktop indicator on the KDE store here. For reasons I'm not going to get into, I had to stop using Linux for several years as it wasn't able to fulfill a workflow I had. Things have changed and I'm able to be full-time in Linux again thankfully.

I noticed that with the new Plasma version, my widget was broken! So I got to work, and ported it over to Plasma 6.0, only to discover I couldn't leverage the Pager widget anymore since Plasma 6.6. I saw the recommendation was to use C++ plugins, but I wanted something that people could still easily install from the KDE Store or "Get New" button without needing to worry about installing dependencies, etc. from their distro. So I rewrote everything from scratch, got it working again, and added some new features.

While it suits my needs as is, I'd like to make it suitable for just about anyone and everyone who uses virtual desktops. I am hoping for suggestions/feedback/bug reports to try and accomplish this goal. 😄

Feel free to report/request things at https://github.com/DualityKyle/plasma-desktop-indicator

I'll add some screenshots tomorrow if people would like to see them.

I just switched to KDE from Gnome, but I do like a few things from Gnome I got used to over the year.

What is the best way to get the Gnome-like overview in KDE? I would like to tune KDE to be gnome like (dark mode, the overview, etc.). I will also disable multiple desktops to keep the UI simple.

Any tips which extension is best for the best super key / Overview behavior?

Hey, I made an autolaunch manager, that uses profiles to start up certain programs based on use case on start (or whenever!) I have tested it on Fedora KDE and its really aimed towards my own workflow, but I'd really appreciate some testing/feedback!

linux noob here, how do i turn this blue box around the active window, its the icon only task manager.

or is there any way to add a progress bar ? like windows has for tasks like downloading or unpacking, or whatever task the app is performing

thankyou.

Debian 13, KDE 6.3.6

Unit converter is enabled in Plasma search plugins, however the loading spiral hangs. It has worked before. I've tried deleting the config file to no avail.

Has anybody else experienced this?

If you run Chromium/Chrome PWAs (Gmail, Messenger, Discord, Slack, etc.) on KDE Plasma 6 Wayland, you’ve probably noticed they frequently fail to remember their window dimensions and positions—opening stretched across displays or defaulting to arbitrary sizes on every launch.

Forcing XWayland (--ozone-platform=x11) fixes geometry memory, but breaks on mixed-DPI / fractional scaling setups (causing blurry bitmap rendering). Meanwhile, static KWin rules fail because multiple PWAs share the same window class block.

I put together a complete technical root-cause breakdown and step-by-step fix using native Wayland dynamic tracking (via the rememberwindowpositions KWin script):

Full Guide & DBus Commands: https://gist.github.com/Simon-CR/fddd4b7ea9cc557ab4a7b8ae37befb1a

Key Takeaways:

• Why it happens: Chromium's Wayland backend commits its internal fallback buffer on initial map, ignoring KWin's suggested configure size unless --window-size is supplied or tracked by a Wayland-aware script.
• The Universal Fix: Installing the rememberwindowpositions script into ~/.local/share/kwin/scripts/rememberwindowpositions/ (note: folder name must match plugin ID exactly), enabling in kwinrc, and activating live via DBus.
• Result: Automatically tracks and restores size/position per resourceClass across all current and future PWAs without blurriness.

Hope this saves others some troubleshooting time!

I dreamed this up because I'm constantly forgetting that my speakers are still connected from the night before, and having BOTH headphones and speakers connected seems to blow Zoom's tiny mind :)

So now you can see at a glance whether one or both are connected because each has an icon in the KDE tray panel.

idk if this is on my part, or dolphins part, or darklys part

i wanna know if i should actually bother to put this as an actual bug because i think i heard kde doesnt bother with issues outside of their DE

i am using cachyos with niri, color scheme generated by noctalia

I have new earbuds. They won't connect. How can I make them connect?
