This is great news and I really hope they can build something that achieves those goals.
Yep, I remember when distros had to ship git versions of sddm with unmerged patches to fix issues because of the disconnect between the sddm maintainer and kde developers who seem to be doing most of the work. They are unfortunately limited to goals and architecture of that separate project project and its maintainer and its finally time to get away from it.
Upvote for acknowledging this blatant flaw while working on everything else KDE does at the moment.
A modern SDDM replacement would be awesome 🤞
I wonder if this will affect PAM authentication
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
