It needs KDE people to fix the stuff created by GNOME people

"- A new system tray applet for controlling the night color feature beginning with Plasma 5.18."
Good news for me. I use night color all time, except when watching a movie. That would make switching easier.

I still wonder what is the exact current stage of Wayland.

Wake me up once they added primary display support to Plasma for Wayland.
Without that it's practically unusable for me (with multiple displays), because some dialogs/menus will just open on some screen kwin decided is primary against my will …

Didn't know GNOME Developers contributed code to KDE!

Sounds pretty cool.

You answer my question: unusable (for me; multiple displays too).

No more 1px line separation between titlebar and window bug for wobbly windows effect. Plasma 5.18 is going to be a sweet release

Instead of sleeping or complaining, it would be more beneficial in the meantime to help develop in Wayland.

I'm using KDE right now. When I see how much crashes and bugs gets fixed, KDE seems to be pretty buggy and gets matured after many years after a major release. I experienced this in 4.x and now 5.x.
I would like to see a bigger company supporting KDE. It could be a much better desktop if they have the resources for quality control.
Maybe they could use Mir for wayland support instead that every desktop has to invent their own wheel? It's like every desktop would invent their own X-Server, isn't it?

Usable in 3 years, if lucky in 2.
