Oh boy.. I sure hope there are no regressions, I just finally managed to properly set up my triple monitor + tv setup.

To be honest, with all the frequent news from KDE, I no longer believe their "big fixes" or "improvement". its way too often when something reported fixed or improved, said problems are still there in the next release.

I am wondering if the Desktop Zoom feature will be in the Accessibility section? That feature is badly needed there and should not be in Desktop Effects section.

To be honest, you have never believed that and for years you have been a known troll that takes indecent advantage of not having a real job in order to quickly throw rubbish in KDE and Qt news. To be honest.

The VP9 support that is merged is just the software version, the hardware accelerated bit is a mistake in the original article (as explained by another dev in the comments there), it's a separate MR: https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kpipew...ge_requests/91

Also it seems like only Intel iGPUs from 10th gen (Ice Lake) onwards as well as Arc supports VP9 hardware encoding anyway, shame that it's not more widely supported but oh well.

I think people who attack others personally are people with low intelligence. Its pretty much pointless to make a coherent conversation with them.

You can go check KDE's GIT repo and see for yourself that the solved bugs mean very real GIT commits.

This comment made me lose 20 points of my IQ. One thing is believing conspiracies when there's no enough information or it's bound for interpretation, but here we are talking about something as solid as granite.
