@kde another feature forced really hard on users, with Konsole this time: the color preview

I can't remember when this landed in KDE as it just added to the list of "new KDE features" I tried to ignore while struggling to keep focus, but that list never ceases to expand 😬

moreover, the option to disable that color preview feature I don't need is burried deep: the only way to turn it off is by creating a new Konsole profile 🤦‍♂️

I use konsole daily and I've never seen this. What is it or rather how does it show up?

@SigHunter when the mouse hovers a 24 bits hex code or a color name in the terminal, it shows a color preview tooltip containing a squared filled with that color

see the original mastodon post in context for screenshots:
