dinckelman, 1 year ago to linux in Fedora Kinoite Nightly available with Plasma 6 to test!

I got a stick with Neon unstable on it, and so far the experience is pretty damn good. Haven’t tried anything gaming related, but the shell itself is functioning really well. The only thing that’s straight up not working is Discover, but when did it, really

Its always changing. When I rebooted the VM into the nightly kinoite image it was completely messed up graphically. Lets see. Its alpha alpha

Niceeeee! I’ve tested a few KF6 apps in a rawhide+nightly copr distrobox on Kinoite, and they’re quick

What are the big changes from KDE 5 -> 6?

solariplex, 1 year ago

Definitely the transition from QT5 to QT6. It Looks identical, but has better wayland support and performance.

There are also a few new and hot features which I can’t recount at the moment (it’s 4:30 in the morning), but the pointieststick blog should have the droids you’re searching for

TIL about kinoite, might be easier to jump from Fedora KDE than to NixOS I’ve been lazily testing.

For me most of my needs would be met by Fedora Kinoite and nix for cli tools in addition to distrobox. Auto updates and rollbacks work flawlessly.

The following nix installer has support for immutable distros like Kinoite (rpm-ostree) and SteamOS. [1]

Also, uBlue is based on Fedora rpm-ostree and allows for customizing the image with Containerfiles. [2]

Nice. I’ve been running Plasma 6 on my Arch test laptop. Not a huge visual difference, but it works fairly well.

The most notable changes are probably HDR and color management, but most people can’t take advantage of it anyway. Although the list of changes includes many quality of life improvements like enabling tap to click by default.
