Well folks, it’s the beginning of a new era: after nearly three decades of KDE desktop environments running on X11, the future KDE Plasma 6.8 release will be Wayland-exclusive! Support for X11 applications will be fully entrusted to Xwayland, and the Plasma X11 session will no longer be included.

      I suppose not. Not yet.

      I know people are particular about WMs, but having to minimize a window vs keeping the window decoration in place seems like a… very minor distinction.

      Is the use case rearranging a ton of windows? Something like that?
