This Month in KDE Linux brings the news that... there's a new feature that allows you to download software for files that need it—currently works for Java and DOS apps; we integrated a next-gen QA system and it's already making users' lives better; we reduced CPU usage and improved boot times; and much more. https://blogs.kde.org/2026/08/03/this-month-in-kde-linux-july-2026/ --- Keep KDE funded💲!

whilst i came up with an entirely different outcome [i would never ever choose the windoze of penguins, ugh, & i am not a gamer, so care nada about any of that associated crap], some of his thinking matches mine https://www.howtogeek.com/after-5-years-of-using-arch-linux-i-quit/ though i still have ​:archlinux:​ installed on my main pooter's sda, & whilst it is still very reliable for me, the friction from the routine maintenance [he listed some of the items / actions, but there's others too] has been a bit of a drag for me for some years now, plus the ongoing #AUR attacks necessitate a perpetually heightened defensive posture that's tiring, & to which i chose eventually to respond to by replacing most of my AUR pkgs with #flatpak or #distrobox ones, or in several cases nothing at all [ie, i chose to just abandon some apps altogether]. so for a couple of months now [after more than a year in various VMs], my delightful daily penguin is the immutable atomic alpha ​:kde:​ ​:linux:​, on sdc. it is really pleasant to use, albeit ofc i needed to adjust several of my workflows to accommodate its RO base. my sdb remains largely empty atm, but once it reaches Beta i hope to install ​:opensuse:​ kalpa here unfortunately my old 2011 Dell xps-15 lappy is "stuck" with Arch, coz it only has bios not uefi boot, which eliminates both of those atomics, alas #DropbearPooterising #Linux #LinuxWomen #FOSS:kde:​ ​:linux:#KDELinux | ​:archlinux:​ ​:kde:​ ​:plasma:#ArchLinux #KDEPlasma:opensuse:#Kalpa | ​:debian:#SparkyLinux | ​:fedora:#Kinoite:firefox_nightly:#FirefoxNightly #FirefoxSecondSidebar #NativeTreeTabs

for mega-yonks i have avidly followed heapsa #linux hashtags [as a linux user & enjoyer] plus various #bsd tags [as someone somewhat bsd-curious but quite overwhelmed by it conceptually & practically]. am now thinking of unfollowing said bsd tags, coz seeing all the posts from all the clever peeps using it with all their incomprehensible commands & concepts, rather than inspiring me is kinda sorta more demoralising & overwhelming me also, there's just no point me ignoring the fact that i bloody well love using my various linux systems, & hafta be honest with myself that the chances of me ever seriously embarking on learning then using another paradigm now are pretty damn slender so, unfollowing said bsd tags seems logical & pragmatic and yet... ...it also feels cowardly & lazy ergo ever more i continue walking around in an endless circle on a cold distant planet, locked in a logic loop, the very robot of which asimov wrote #DropbearPooterising #Linux #LinuxWomen #FOSS:kde:​ ​:linux:#KDELinux | ​:archlinux:​ ​:kde:​ ​:plasma:#ArchLinux #KDEPlasma:debian:#SparkyLinux | ​:opensuse:#Kalpa | ​:fedora:#Kinoite

@Crisper@techhub.social Jeg har ikke fuld adgang til uruky, men mojeek gav præcis samme resultat. Jeg er kunne prøve uruky en månedstid, men det er lidt besværligt at betale, og det kan ikke opfylde mit søgebehov helt endnu :) Lige nu er deres captcha ude af drift, tror jeg. Jeg bruger #kde siden v 1.12, de sidste mange år på #archlinux og på min extra pc på #kdelinux :)

"This Month in #KDELinux" brings the news that... You should never deploy alpha software in production machines 😬! A systemd bug broke booting an updated system, a systemd update broke Discover, but the good news is everything has been sorted and hardened now. On the plus side, KDE Linux users get friendlier feedback, better connectivity with Apple devices, and improved multi-language support. https://pointieststick.com/2026/03/31/this-month-in-kde-linux-march-2026/ #distro #Linux #FreeSoftware #OpenSource
