This blog only covers the tip of the iceberg! Tons of KDE apps whose evolution I don't have time to follow aren't represented here, and I also don't mention backend refactoring, improved exam coverage, and other changes that are generally not user-facing. If you're hungry for more, cheque out https://planet.kde.org, where you tin can find more news from other KDE contributors.
How You Tin can Help
If y'all're a developer, bank check out our 15-Minute Problems Initiative. Working on these issues makes a big difference chop-chop!
Otherwise, have a look at https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved to notice means to be part of a project that really matters. Each correspondent makes a huge divergence in KDE; you are non a number or a cog in a machine! You lot don't have to already be a programmer, either. I wasn't when I got started. Endeavour information technology, you'll like it! We don't bite!
Finally, consider making a tax-deductible donation to the KDE due east.5. foundation.
Rejoice all, for the infamous "Korners" problems has been fixed! This issue caused third-political party window decoration themes with rounded corners to brandish a square mistiness area when using burred backgrounds. Themes are now able to (and must) specify a mask graphic that will prune the blur area to the visible surface area of the window decorations. Thank you to Michail Vourlakos for implementing this fix in Plasma 5.25!
But that'south not all in the Big Deal section, for Kate and other KTextEditor-based apps finally have multi-cursor support! You can create multiple cursors in iii ways:
-
Alt+Click
in unlike places to add new cursors there - Press
Alt+Ctrl+upwards/down
to add new cursors on lines above or below the current i - Select multiple lines of text and printing
Alt+Shift+I
to put a cursor on each i
Thanks then much to Waqar Ahmed for this astonishing work, which will be in Frameworks 5.93!

Unfortunately we didn't get whatever 15-minute bugs stock-still this week, and overall action was lower than usual. I suspect at least part of the reason is fallout from the ongoing war in Ukraine, which has affected several prominent Ukrainian KDE contributors and also cutting off Russian contributors from many of their usual internet resources. Some humanitarian aid and media organizations that yous can donate to may be found here. Let u.s. all promise for peace, and remain united in our pursuit to build the finest and most humane software.

I read a comment on Phoronix recently that reminded me why I love KDE Plasma:
"KDE is normal and information technology works"
We can ignore the argument to which this is a response, and forgive alcade for confusing the name of the community with the desktop environment. Regardless, "KDE is normal and it works" is in a nutshell what I retrieve makes KDE Plasma such a unique and shining point of lite in the FOSS world.
Plasma uses a normal, familiar layout: Panel on the bottom with an app launcher, pinned apps, system tray, and clock; desktop icons; visible buttons that mostly have text labels; minimize/maximize/shut buttons on windows. You know, normal stuff. You can change everything, but information technology starts out normal, unlike other desktop environment projects that are explicitly abnormal–being controversially opinionated well-nigh matters of design or having an unusual component layout. This is fine! Their departures from what's normal may in fact be better, and their developers and users they certainly think so. But tons of people out at that place don't want "may be better", they want "normal." And that's fine too. Our software is for them.
And KDE Plasma works. It has its bugs, only information technology is basically a solid and reliable piece of technology that isn't missing major features, either considering of a lack of resources or because design decisions preclude supporting them. It is non a hobbyist science project missing central functionality that might break entirely. It doesn't re-invent itself every year or 2 and become something different that might stop coming together your needs or tastes. Information technology has actionable plans for adapting to industry changes surrounding it that are actively existence carried out; it is non on a path to become obsolete or a technical dead end. No, it'southward only it's an imperfect and boring piece of infrastructure you lot tin nonetheless rely on.
I think the world needs something with those characteristics, and and that'southward why I similar it and work on information technology.
While we piece of work on Plasma 5.24 bugs (and yous tin can see many of them fixed beneath), we've too started to work on many improvements for Plasma 5.25 and KDE apps! Bank check information technology out:
