KDE Plasma 5.27, a Long Term Support release and the final release in the Plasma 5 series which is based on Qt 5, has been released.
Plasma 5.27 brings exciting new improvements to your desktop, and the first thing you’ll notice when firing up Plasma is our new Konqi-powered wizard which will guide you through setting up the desktop.
Other big new features include a window tiling system, a more stylish app theme, cleaner and more usable tools, and widgets that give you more control over your machine.
I love KDE to bits since the late nineties, but lately every time they push a new version (including this one) I get to find a completely different hack to make all non-KDE apps not show their fonts as 2 cm squared on my HiDPI screen. At some point in the past I’ll need to start documenting these hacks because they’re piling up and probably doing more harm that good by now.
