One year on from Plasma 6.0, and this is what you can expect in your next update: massive steps in the support and configuration of drawing tablets, pixel perfect window placing and zoom, extended hardware monitoring, even more customization possibilities, and so much more.

Check out the tweaked tiling that lets you have different layouts for every virtual desktop; the overhauled Spectacle that makes capturing your desktop faster; how KRunner now understands color; and in general the literally dozens of other fixes and features that make Plasma friendlier and easier to use.

This site does considerably better than just asking "Is this the year of the Linux Desktop?".

It lists and breaks down the current status of major software support in Linux, so you can decide whether the switch is right for you at the current moment, as well as a guide to help you make an informed choice on distro and know what else you might be getting into.

Plasma 6.5 is out! Look forward to cool interface re-designs (rounded corners! Automatic smooth light-to-dark transitions!), features (smart KRunner searches! Pinned clipboard items!) and tons of usability and accessibility improvements:

Plasma 6.6 is now live!

In Plasma 6.6, Spectacle can read texts from screenshots; we trial-run our very own on-screen keyboard for touchscreens; and we have a new first-time wizard that let's users configure their passwords, timezones, keyboard and networks, on preinstalled systems; among many, many more marvelous things.
