You do realize that neon is an unstable development version, right?

Same as the 'stable' version then.

Wanted to try Plasma 5 again after kde released the neon project, fresh install, installed the proprietary nvidia drivers and plasma desktop randomly crashes, P.O.S.
back to Mate.

Fine by me. ATM KDE needs bugfixes.

Plasma 5.3 had been called stable, then Plasma 5.4 had been called stable. What KDE user call stable, Gnome user call it unstable. Happy Gnome User for a few months.

Just as likely to have added plenty of new bugs.
When i tried Plasma 5 and had problems i searched for them on the bug tracker and some of them go back years, fixed then broken again, rinse and repeat...
It's a great shame i really did enjoy using it.

Happy Mate user now.

5.5.2 fixed a lot already for me, compared to 5.4, I guess with the help of qt5 updates. Looking forward to qt5.6 which should squash remaining bugs.

Issues are issues no matter what is causing them, but you might want to read some of the reasons to why Plasma 5 is hit by "bugs"

Have they added the ability to have instant autohide for the UI? Last time I checked it had instant show, with a hide delay that drove me nuts.
