You don't even need to connect computer anywhere. You can connect, say, your iPad with your Android phone and share stuff from one to another.

Trying it out today, I had a flashback that reminded why I loved this player so much: when I pressed the "pause" button, instead of immediately cutting off, the track gradually faded into silence.

It was not the smorgasbord of features, but the small things like this that set Amarok head and shoulders above all other players. Can't wait to see it brought up to speed again.

Here, you dropped this...

Because, guess what? Plasma does not force you to use Firefox either.

During the Clinton era Microsoft was a hair's breadth away from being broken apart for all its anti-competitive monopolistic shenanigans -- including the browser war thing that you mention.

But then Bush Junior got into power (I resist using the words "was elected") and he swept all that away.

Maybe you should ask for your money back...

Minimized apps are restored to their prior size and position. Apps behind other windows, are brought to the front

Cool KDE Plasma Tip: Quickly access task manager apps with [Meta] + [number]

@kde@floss.social's task manager usually lives in the panel located by default at the bottom of your desktop (see attached image).

Quickly open or display apps shown in the task manager by holding down the [Meta] (aka "Windows") key and hitting one of the number keys at the top of your keyboard.

Reach the first app on the left with [Meta] + [1], the second from the left with [Meta] + [2], etc.

I don't know. So you don't accidentally paste something you didn't intend to? No idea. Sounds like a good wishlist thing to post to

https://bugs.kde.org

I agree that pasting the selected item right away would make the feature even more useful.

Well... the clipboard manager is still necessary 😬 , except you don't have to go looking for it in the system tray or wherever you put it*.

And you can do everything without lifting your fingers off the keyboard!

* You can hide it and unclutter the tray!

Cool KDE Plasma trick: [Meta] + [v]

You know how you can use [Ctrl] + [v] to paste in place the last thing you copied to the clipboard, right?

A cool and productive-enhancing variant of that available in #KDE 's #Plasma desktop is that, when copying and pasting a lot of different things, you can hold down the [Meta] ("Windows") key and hit [v], and a list of all the elements available on the clipboard will pop up so you can choose what to paste next.

My vote goes to @Minetest (https://www.minetest.net/) and 0 A.D. (https://play0ad.com/) two criminally underrated games that deserve much more exposure.

Fedora != KDE
Fedora KDE Spin != KDE

There is no proposal in KDE for abandoning X11.

Did you read the same blog post as me? Because that is not what that post is saying at all.

Th combination Wayland/KWin is killing it. We recently had Arjen Hiemstra showing how you can access a remote desktop:

Something that was seemingly destined to die with X11.
