    I started using Plasma 5 a smidge before devs were saying it was ready for primetime. That was my conversion from Gnome (which I was very happy to leave by then) and it’s been nothing but positive.

    I will wait for the full release of Plasma 6, but I’m super excited for it. I still <3 Plasma 5.

    Thank you KDE devs!

    Will this affect SteamOS in any way? I guess the development on that is separate from KDE but I don’t really know.

    To a “newbie”, what does this mean? I transitioned to Linux full time less than a year ago and settled with KDE. Will this affect me in any way?

      Just a bigger update, should be fine. AFAIK they did not do any major overhaul from a regular user’s perspective, but there are some pretty big changes under the hood. If you use a distro with regular releases, this will probably be included in the next one.

    Running surprisingly well for a beta. I really hope to find some free time and help some more with reporting the minor bugs left during the end of the year vacation time and help polish for the final release.
