If you encounter a bug, proceed to https://bugs.kde.org/, check whether it has been reported.

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

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social Can we also look forward to improved #accessibility for #disabled users? #blind #VisuallyImpaired #LowVision #disability #a11y #linux #LinuxCommunity #KDE #KDEPlasma #Plasma6

@noahcarver @kde@lemmy.kde.social

It is one of our main goals:

https://community.kde.org/Goals

and we are working accessibility design structures into all our software, not only the desktop.

If you have any advice you would like to share, please visit the links and tell us how we should do things.

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social This is wonderful! Thank you for prioritizing accessibility up front. It's especially heartening to know that you're tackling accessibility head on because it has historically been deprioritized in the Linux community at times. Best of luck, and I look forward to testing KDE in the near future.

I always enjoy reading the "This week in KDE" posts.

I hope we eventually get the blue light filter on Plasma in Wayland.

Edit: with Nvidia! I hope we get the blue light filter on Plasma in Wayland with Nvidia!

Is this different from Night Shift? I thought that was already working in Wayland (unless you mean Nvidia).

[–] HKayn@dormi.zone 2 points 1 year ago

I do mean Nvidia.

Looking forward for Plasma 6 to land up on #Manjaro !!

[–] Bro666@lemmy.kde.social 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Note Plasma 6 won't be ready until towards the end of 2023, beginning 2024 😬

@Bro666 @gopal ok np, release 5.27 is so good i can be on this thing for 3 years

@kde@lemmy.kde.social @kde@floss.social It would be amazing to also have a sound profile that turns off all sounds. :) Or maybe this already exists and I just didn't find it.
