Just installed KDE Plasma on my Ubuntu system to replace GNOME and Wayland. Mainly to get rid of an issue where my games would lose mouse lock, but now I can have two different wallpapers on both monitors and have a clock on my second monitor which is AWESOME.

I WISH I INSTALLED IT SOONER, I LOVE IT.

KDE is following GNOME in dropping x11 support in early 2027. The only solution if you want to still use x11 going forward is to get a LTS like ubuntu and bunker up for the next 10 years.
