Curious to hear them. It’s been a bug free experience for me, even on Wayland.



Well allow me to list them off. I'm using Plasma 5.27

- If my monitor dims due to inactivity then I start using my computer again, the monitor stays dim and does not come back up to the brightness I had it unless I turn off my monitor and turn it back on. I resolved this by just turning off dimming.

- If KDE goes to lockscreen due to inactivity but I start interacting with my computer during the transition, my monitor just stays black and doesn't return to desktop or go to lockscreen.

- My bluetooth headphones disconnect whenever KDE goes to lockscreen.

-I use multiple languages and sometimes my languages will switch randomly despite not hitting the language hotkey and often I will mash my language hotkey and the language still won't change.

Those are just what I remember off the top of my head but I'm maintaining a list somewhere in a notebook.


Oh jeez that does sound brutal. I do not experience those issues on my Deb 12 desktop. The lockscreen/dimming/etc stuff specifically works well for me. It’s very responsive to return from lock, if I catch it in the transition I can abort. Wondering if it’s the underlying platform you are on, or a third party plugin or module that could be doing this.


It's entirely possible Fedora sucks and is at fault while KDE itself is not responsible for the problems.


it is likely underlying services / drivers are to blame. I have similar issues with bluetooth and my gpu preventing sleep / causing screen issues


i had similar lock issues with my kali VM, but that was through virtualbox, could be related however
