Claude.ai tells me that this exists but I don't see it on Kubuntu 18.04 or 22.04.

A checkbox or toggle switch labeled "Different widgets for each desktop" or "Separate widget sets for each desktop"

Is this real and what do I have to do to get to it?

x-y problem:

What I really want is a "sub-desktop" like a subfolder of a folder, but looking like a desktop - preferably without switching activities or opening an actual folder in Dolphin.

My problem is that with cryptocurrencies, I have icons for price URLs, icons for staking URLs, and icons for wallets. They're conceptually all part of one thing I'm doing, but there are too many to fit comfortably on one desktop.

And, I get them all arranged in groups on the screen exactly the way I want them and then I accidentally change resolution on an external monitor... and KDE rearranges them all in alphabetical order making the desktop almost useless.

At least if I could break them up into groups, it would be easier to recover from the above disaster.

Maybe having a bunch of activities would do it. I'm not sure how to approach this.
