It's been 3000 years...

(Seriously though, GPL is awesome, it really does help performance. I've been using it for a few months already by default and the improvement is noticeable on an RX 6700 XT)

Quoting: KimyrielleAm I the only one actually liking the #1234 system?
Nope, I much prefer it, not to mention how this is going to cause a lot of username squatting and selling. There's a big pushback against this change on places like the Fediverse and Tumblr (1) [External Link] (2) [External Link].

Plus, they seem to be working on a (rancid) re-design of the mobile app [External Link].

All while still making it against ToS to fix the issue yourself, by making your own client or modifying the proprietary client.

I hope Revolt [External Link] gains some traction when it's more developed, open and optional self-hosting, while being more approachable than XMPP and Matrix for the less tech-savvy :tongue:

Right on. Mad respect. Played this game when I was far too young to do so. Thank you for getting me into so much trouble. It was worth it.

Quoting: ridgeeBy the way, how did you install the beta on Arch? AUR? I don't see version 5.27 even in the KDE-Unstable repo.
It's in KDE-Unstable, but Plasma beta versions use "X.X.90" versioning, so 5.27 beta is 5.26.90, and will get bumped to 5.27 when released.

Upgraded to the beta yesterday and it's all smooth sailing. I have three screens so the multi-monitor improvements are super nice to have
