Thanks, yeah I used to use fish:/ and fonts:/ and a couple of other kio slaves, just not man, low discoverability I guess. I thought kio slaves had died with KDE5 [that's still the right name IMO despite the framework:applications split].

TIL.

Yeah, they neutered a lot of stuff with KF5 (the elimination of KLocale honestly makes me want to go back to Windows), but KIO is still around.

Unfortunately, it looks like fonts:/ was never ported to KF5, but fish:// and a bunch of others are still around.
