Don't like all these frames in @kde's QtWidget apps? Me neither, so here is my proposal to remove them in #Plasma6 😎

+1 to my #distrohop history and _yes_ I did say I would stay on #Fedora Kinoite for some time but my blood runs Debian :P

So, this is my distrohop chain

#MXLinux -> #Manjaro -> #GarudaLinux -> #EndeavourOS -> Fedora -> Fedora #Kinoite -> #Devuan (?)

I also just can't help wanting #KDE #Plasma6 because it has _so_ many things I want/need. I will probably distrohop again once Plasma 6 is released, but we'll see.

P.S: I'd stay with MX my whole life time if it had a proper updating solution.

#Design & #art competitions really denigrate the value of those professions, and I'm disappointed in #KDE for using this format for the #plasma6 wallpaper. While I'm sure KDE was well meaning, there is a long history of using "competitions" to get free work from designers and artists. If there isn't anyone internally who is willing to volunteer the time, someone ought to be paid to make the new wallpaper. KDE is willing to pay for dev time; why not professionals in art and / or design?

Calling All Artists! The #Plasma6 Wallpaper Contest is now open

We are calling on all artists to submit their original wallpaper designs and compete for the chance to win a brand-new @frameworkcomputer 13'' laptop.
