David, Nate, Josh, Marco, Carl, and Niccolò are here ready to answer all your questions on Plasma (all versions), Gear, Frameworks, Wayland (and how it affects KDE's software), and everything in between.

Fire away, Lemmy!

We were expecting to be done in an hour and we have past the 2-hour mark already! Time flies when you are having fun.

Thank you for all the questions and the welcoming and friendly atmosphere, but the devs must get back to making Plasma 6 great.

Please keep the conversation going and KDE contributors will continue to answer over the next days as time permits.

Thank you all!!

Thanks for all the great work on kde! I was wondering if the KDE theme refresh, (brise) and icon (app and plasma icon) proposals are going to happen in plasma 6.1? Or is that not on the table? Also, are there plans to have KDE connect support making your phone a webcam?

Edit: grammar

Also, is there plans to have KDE connect support making your phone a webcam?

That's an amazing idea! Currently I am using my laptop next to my desktop screens as a sudo webcam :D

Yeah the only way to do it right now is using droidcam, and I took one look at the documentation and gave up, and continued using my bad webcam. Also afiak the new pipewire video portals should make that feature easier to implement.

Edit: thank you for the reply!

You should check out "scrcpy", it's on GitHub and it is great for using your phone as a webcam and more things.

offtopic, but why is this comment yellow? never seen that before.

EDIT: Oh wait, I think it's to mark unread comments. Haven't seen that before. Must be a new thing.

I have no idea, what client do you use? (Its not yellow for me on sync) Edit: yeah maybe I don't know to be honest

[-] leopold@lemmy.kde.social 3 points 9 months ago

Developers do not look for reports on social media, so they will not see it and all it does is clutter up the feed.
