Why wait for Microsoft to catch up with what we've been doing for decades?

Get Plasma, a modern, fully functional, clean, privacy-respecting, non-intrusive operating system now, regardless from where you live and ditch Windows for good.

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social Using Gnome 45. Absolute adore it's out of the box polish. But yeah, Linux > Mac >>>>>>> Windows

Even though I don't prefer KDE Plasma as my desktop environment, I support this due to being #LibreSoftware and considering what it opposes.

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social I wiped my drive and installed Linux on my primary deskyop the day I saw the first leaked screenshots of windows 11.

Never regretted it. And never going back.

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social KDE, I enjoy the software + the cute artwork, but please don't be rude to Microsoft!! They also include Linux and they like Linux too, so you and Microsoft should be friends :3

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social Never heard of Plasma, nor am I in linux ecosystem yet, but from brief googling Plasma telemetry and developer attitude towards it is concerning

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social I love plasma for not being gnome but I'm tired of all the bugs I've got with each and every update on arch. Your stable channel is actually a forever beta channel.
At this point I'm just waiting and hoping Cosmic will be good enough.

Uses Arch

Complains when things break

@johnfocker
I haven't had any bugs with either Plasma or Archlinux. What issues are you having?
