I'm also a Plasma user, and I decided to try it out in a vm yesterday after reading this thread. It didn't appear to play nicely in a vm. It was honestly the weirdest thing. Lots of freezes in my plasma session. Not the only distro that has problems in a vm, but still unexpected.
Anyways, there were a lot more packages for it than I initially thought. However, still lacked some things that I wanted to use, and like nixOS it seems different enough that I would need to put in a bit of work to get those things working on alpine.
That isn't a good idea. You should never install gnome and kde together on the same system. There are often lots of conflicting stuff. Some distros handle it well, but most don't.
Cool, while a lot of people are complaining. For those of us that still keep a chromium based browser around for the those few times where you need compatibility. These small improvements are very much welcome.
I agree, I really like the look of them. I just wish they would export the menu's with me being a Plasma boy.
Cool. Always nice to see the whole document signing situation improving across all the different linux desktops.
I agree. Arch really won me over with how they do things. Sometimes less is more.
Glad you brought up the software point. Back when I tried I had the same issue, but no one mentioned it when I was hearing about why I should try out a BSD system. Seems that even open source software often doesn't have any of the BSD's in mind and you end up needing to use that linux compat thing I remember seeing. If that even works for whatever you are trying to use.
