They're giving you a lesson in quantum physics: If you try to measure the CPU, then you irrevocably change it!

In the model of quantum physics of Ksysguard the irrevocable change in the measurement error is less than 2%.

I tried installing KDE, but this baloo extractor seems quite busy doing some heavy lifting in the background. I wonder how long it takes to index less than 100 GB.

Usually disable that with balooctl disable. My file system is organized so I don’t need search though.

This new "Plasma System Monitor" takes 10% of my CPU...

Some features have been neither integrated nor fixed as it was wrongly stated.

We at Fedora KDE-SIG are going to release F34 with Wayland enabled by default :-)

PS: in my humble opinion is not yet ready but... hey, it's a bleeding edge distro!

Yep... So if you know your users and what they like, and also all the risks, then it's a nice choice... Although i wouldn't consider such a liberal distro...
To be fair, in general i like with the nice configs turned on by default in Fedora, which isn't there in my distro...

best is when your distro ships it turned on by default... on that regard i trust my distro with choices like this...

"Rewritten configuration pages, cleaner and easier to use" is probably triggering memories of certain events that led to a lot of us transitioning to KDE around ten years ago.
Looks good though.

Gonna give this a try asap, but I don't have any expectations for Wayland support until the devs themselves declare it ready. Probably not even then.
