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.

This is why I think people should stop talking about Ubuntu so much and name drop Kubuntu more, it's the new top dog in the family

IDK what is up with Kubuntu, but it always has show-stopping bugs when I use it. I think it's the reason everyone thinks Plasma is buggy. Any other distro seems to work fine with Plasma.

Interesting, I wonder if I'm avoiding these by using the backports lol

Possibly. I can't say I've ever tried to add Plasma to vanilla Ubuntu, other than trying out Kubuntu every once in a while when I try to put a new linux user on something, I've been off Ubuntu for well over a decade.
