Well, all I can honestly say of the message at 1:09 of the video is:

Happy anniversary !
And many many thanks to its developers who really listen and communicate with the users !
I wish it will get more users and developers in the future !
I think KDE Plasma is the only DE capable of solving the fragmentation problem that hurts Linux's adoption.

21 years with Linux as daily driver and somehow I come always back to KDE as I'm right now on KDE Plasma Version 5.21.4 - Happy anniversary and a big thank you to all contributors!

Happy to celebrate the anniversary. Thanks and best wishes to all. As for this version of Plasma, I am very satisfied, I have been testing it on Tumbleweed since the beta and today the final version has arrived. Good job. Who is trying or will try it, I recommend switching to the new "Window overview" (I don't know if the translation is faithful, but you can find it in effect desktop) from what I understand the default setting still uses the old, but the new It is much better. Wayland for me is now in place, perfectly usable, I state that I do not use dual monitors or strange settings.

The funnniest thing about every fragmentation witnesses is that you realy think you will decide and everyone will obey. What if your "One kernel, one DE, one distro" moto will be fullfilled as Redhat+Gnome+Systemd everywhere?

Eewwwww "Redhat+Gnome+Systemd" not even as a joke sheesh!

[darkbasic]

I state that I do not use dual monitors

That's still the main pain point unfortunately, but let's not complain about it today and let's just celebrate the 25 years

Thanks to all the developers, contributors and supporters of KDE! I've been using KDE Plasma for some years now and I couldn't be happier! Keep up the good work!

And it's still ugly as hell by default. How difficult is it for KDE devs to create a nice and polished default theme? They invest a lot in bug fixes, new features, new functions etc, but they forget about the interface theme.
