Switched to the KDE Wayland session in this round of updates.

Good to see AMD GPU usage rising trend picking up again, now that GPU shortages and overpricing are over.

Looks pretty cool! I hope they'll release the soundtrack too.

I bought the game a while ago. Some hard puzzles (in a good way) and some elements of the story are kind of strange, but overall it felt good.

You can check the soundtrack here (it's very good):

KDE Plasma 5.25 is out now, here's some of what's new

Quoting: slaapliedjeYeah, I'm in the USA where they don't even think Sony makes phones, it's pretty much Samsung or Apple... Though I'll be honest, I bought a Sony Xperia (z2 I think?) a few years ago and... it's actually the best 'pure Android' that I've used, as most of the time non-Samsung Androids are kind of terrible... at least in my experience. Still think the N900 and N9 were years ahead in their design...
Xperia XA2 will work fine, but it doesn't have VoLTE in SailfishOS, so it will get cut off on most providers.

May be Xperia 5 III will get support eventually.

Quoting: tuubiSailfish OS [External Link] works fine for me on my Sony Xperia 10, with official support from Jolla. But unless you're in "the countries of the European Union, UK, Norway [or] Switzerland", you're out of luck.
You can list yourself as there and be elsewhere. They don't stop you :) It works in other countries.

Color syncing reminds SailfishOS ambience idea. Cool concept and it's nice to see.

Waiting for Debian testing to finally get Qt 5.15.4 to be able to switch to the KDE Wayland session and avoid that nasty monitor sleep bug.

Quoting: TimeFreezeI'll be surprised if the promised Linux version will actually happen.
Night Dive are usually good at releasing Linux versions. But I guess we'll see.

Looks promising. I'm a backer so I'm looking forward to the release.
