So far, I have to say that my #KDE #Plasma6 experience sucks.

The theme I was using doesn’t work. The icons all suck. EventCalendar, which was synced to my Google calendar is dead. Vivaldi looks like crap. The panel at the bottom of my screen is floating up probably 100 pixels, leaving useless space below it, I can’t find a way to sink it to the actual bottom of the screen. I had increased all my font sizes because my eyes are bad, they have all shrunk and changing the font sizes and the interface percentage doesn’t fix it.

So far, not a happy experience @kde

      Also gotta keep in mind this is a major release. It’s allowed to break stuff, and the very first release is bound to have some bugs. We’re far into the Plasma 5 lifetime, a lot of the quirks have been ironed out.

      It literally just came out, of course a lot of things haven’t been updated for it yet. Most people’s distros don’t even have it yet, addon authors don’t even know their addons are broken yet.

        Well, yes. Lots of minor annoyance are popping up, most are being easily solved, so there will be a lot of minor updates over the next few weeks. 6.0.1 will be out in 6 days and a lot of the stuff annoying the early adopters will go away then.

    So first please conver that post into a list so people can easily refer to issues.

    1. Port the theme or ask the creator or the community
    2. Not constructive feedback
    3. Never heard of that, please elaborate.
    4. Not a KDE bug? Like not at all. Are you on Manjaro?
    5. Right click on the panel and go to edit mode. This is literally a single button press, thanks to Niccolo and more awesome people. I agree that float is annoying but this is KDE, just change it.
    6. how doesnt that fix it? I am 100% sure you can increase font size or overall scale percentage in the settings.
