How did we see what the oom killer was killing before? Getting a notification is a great change because I had no idea how this was checked

At the very least you can see it in dmesg.

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social I love how the little 'plus' icon now follows the system colours. I was never bothered by it before, but now I can't unsee it 😩

So, Linuxe can kill programas when it runs out of memory.
Wish it had done like that when it happened here.
