Drama aside, I think it'd be cool if the color changed.

With the new login screen coming and the unified theming engine allegedly close, I hope the Discover app gets redone. I find it pretty slow and ugly, especially compared to the Gnome equivalent (whatever it’s called). It gives me constant errors about useless stuff as well, I often find an app in there and just download it in the command line.

Discover is unusable in my opinion. I have no clue why it's so slow compared to the command line.

Packagekit mainly.

It also helps if you just focus on a single package format. The Snap Store's performance is great, though I have seen some baffling QA issues with it (like categories showing up like "Devel..."). There's also that store that Universal Blue is pushing, forget what it's called.

Bazaar. Flatpak-only, genuinely the best software store I have ever used.

Plasma login came out with 6.6 right? Or are you talking about something else?

It's worked fine for me, I was having trouble with sddb or lightdm so I gave it a go. It fixed the numlock not coming on at login screen with reboots which is nice.

Honestly, it sounds like amazing way to get started. You don't need to be a programmer to make that fix.

I recommend joining the kde-devel matrix channel. Someone there will definitely be able to tell you what to do.

blue is the kanonikal KDE kolour khoike.

Be the change you want to see! (...oh no I was that guy) But seriously, I imagine it's quite a simple task of inspecting the SVG code for the right icon to see what causes the colour responsiveness, and copying that part into the left icon

what if you try French

pacman -Rdd discover

I know for a lot of people this would be annoying but I do updates on a daily schedule anyway and just find the discover notifications annoying
