KDE Plasma 5.16 Rolling Out Rewritten Notification System

[DarkCloud]

Can they please take time to get rid of the sign on's. I log into the system, then get prompted for some keyring password, then get prompted for a wallet password. I don't even know what they are

If you don't use those things you can just uninstall them, or at least disable their services. That's what I do, and I don't get any prompts.

Keyring is Gnome's password manager, KWallet is KDE's. Both very useful, imho, but terribly annoying them being two.

Well known KDE developer Kai Uwe

A bit odd that you only use his first name(s)...

Seems like an awesome improvement of Kai Uwe, will test it as soon as possible.

Hope the examples mentioned in his blog work on Wayland too, like drag and drop of the screenshot.

I'm curious when they will rewrite/remove Plasma completely.

I'm sure they will after you hire them and pay them to do so.

I'm sorry, why should a DE provide this feature?

In fact, for Intel there's a 3rd party plasmoid for that.

Why do you only report on IBM software and not something good and usable like XFCE? XFCE 4.14 which will release in 2025 will finally have a fix for screen tearing. Is this not worth mentioning?

Current notification system is messed up. The icon practically never appears in the notification area. I hope the redesign makes it better.

In the system tray settings (right click the up arrow) you can go to entries and set the notifications applet to always stay on the panel.
