: If that's a step too far, then there are new versions of CDE – and tmux

The oldest of the open source Linux desktops is planning its final steps away from X11, while an even older Unix desktop is getting freshened up.

The team behind the KDE Plasma desktop announced it is going all-in on a Wayland future. The Plasma version 6.8, “which we expect will be sometime in early 2027,” will completely drop X11 support.

You don’t need to worry just yet. Plasma 6.5 appeared less than a month ago, and it’s currently at version 6.5.3. That means there are the entire 6.6 and 6.7 release sequences to get through, which will probably take most of 2026 and some of 2027.

    Dude honestly get a life and stop that block evasion. I’m tired of blocking you on every instance.

      1. If block evasion was my goal, I’d just randomize each account name, it’d be far more efficient

      2. This is an old account

      3. Hm yes how horrible, 2-3 clicks and a mere second to add an account to your block. The horror.
