Why Go for a Sleek and Elegant KDE Look?

KDE Plasma 6 offers deep customization, but sometimes the default setup feels too busy or clunky. By applying a carefully crafted layout with professional themes, icons, and widgets, you can boost both the aesthetic and your focus.

Plasma 6.5

KDE is on the verge of making it big for the general public

KDE Plasma 6.5 released

Plasma is a popular desktop (and mobile) environment for GNU/Linux and other UNIX-like operating systems. Among other things it also powers the desktop mode of Steam Deck gaming handheld. The KDE community today announced the latest release: Plasma 6.5. This fresh new release is all about fine-tuning, fresh features, and a making everything smooth and sleek for everyone.

The new version brings automatic light-to-dark theme switching based on the time of day. You can configure which global themes it switches between. You can also configure whether you want the wallpaper to switch between its light and dark versions based on the color scheme, the time of day, or be always light or dark. Next up is a “Pinned clipboard items” feature, which lets you save text you use regularly into the clipboard. Breeze-themed windows will now have the same level of roundness in all four corners, even the bottom one. Flatpak Permissions page has been transformed into a general Application Permissions page, where you can configure applications’ ability to do things like take screenshots and accept remote control requests. The utility that reads the level of ink or toner from your printer now informs you when it’s running low or empty. For the gamers out there, you can now see more relevant info about game controllers on System Settings’ Game Controller page. Artists among you can now configure any rotary dials and touch rings on your drawing tablet. Users sensitive to color can now make use of a grayscale color filter, which desaturates or removes color systemwide. Plasma 6.5 implements support for an experimental version of the Wayland picture-in-picture protocol that promises to allow apps like Firefox to eventually display proper PiP windows that stay above others automatically. Support for “overlay planes” was added, which can reduce CPU usage and power draw when displaying full-screen content using a compatible GPU.

You can read more about these and many other other features in the Plasma 6.5 release anounncement and complete changelog.
