From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Cool! Maybe I'll switch back to KDE when it releases. I'm currently on GNOME because KDE 5 Wayland crashes on startup, and if I can get it to start, it hangs. Unfortunately, getting my monitors to refresh properly is more important than using KDE.
Looks like it's only a few months away! I'm excited to play with it!
That sounds weird. Did you report this bug? Wayland on KDE 5 is quite stable in my experience.
No, maybe I'll try it again, it has been a few months.
Though with the focus being on KDE 6, maybe it's better for me to just try that out instead.
I will sound really nit-picky buy the biggest thing keeping me away from using KDE is that accent-colored bar on each window in the taskbar, and the different coloring of open/focused/minimized windows. I want it sleek but not cluttery.
I've tried about a dozen themes but I couldn't find any that got rid of that and looked good. I tried fixing it myself but editing svg files was too difficult for me.
I hope plasma 6 adds more options for this but I'm not holding my breath.
