    No, that is not because of QML, but because you have PIM integration active. If you don't use Kontact/Korganizer or just don't want to see your meetings highlighted in the clock's calendar you can disable "PIM Events Plugin" from the clock's settings.

    Yes, because the fix causes other issues, and it's not even clear it's the right way to go. Read the discussion in the review you linked! For Qt to release regularly (everyone complained about that not happening), things like this _cannot_ hold up releases for more than few days at most.

    I hope this means Maya 2019 will be released finally. It's been well over 15 months.

    Unless there is a workaround made for it in Plasma.
    If the hamburger menu is what I think it is - I hate it with passion. In Plasma 5 when I click on this button to show up the app menu it takes like 1 sec to show up and the menu randomly hides which is very frustrating.

A coarse estimate is that about 48.7% of the developer work hours has been wasted on redundancies and trend 'horing, over which there should be a software architect or two that needs to be fired... out of a cannon and into the sun.

    At least now they finally bothered to produce a binary build for babies like cl33r

    Wtf, the Qt company often if not always produces binary builds, they even have a server mirrors for faster downloads. Didn't you know that?
