I'm really happy to see the Krunner-Bug fixed, was kind of annoyed by this for the last months ^^

That tends to happen for the first 10-ish minutes after an article goes live. Hopefully the server upgrade will help.

Copy location is a feature I could have used in the past so that's a very welcome addition.

Speed improvements for KRunner?

Amazing! I hope this allows us to be on par with the other desktops, where typing a letter immediately starts searching.

1 letter searching is bloat.

Yeah, I loved that distro for how it ships the latest Qt+KDE, couldn't stand it for how old everything else is.
I hoped for a while LTS was something temporary, until they get the hang of things, but swiftly moved on when I realized that's not the case.
Still, Neon does one thing right and that's showing the world just how bad Kubuntu really is (apparently it doesn't even deactivate Ubuntu stuff that's not needed in Kubuntu - maybe things have picked up in the meanwhile).

Just hope they have fixed Konsole again so it doesn't complain about multiple tabs on logout.

[...] apparently it doesn't even deactivate Ubuntu stuff that's not needed in Kubuntu [...]

And you base that on... what, exactly?
