alt Hacker NewsWhat I really like right now with 6 is the updates: you kind of don't even notice. Things just work better and faster. Your system works the same as yesterday, updates are not a biggie at all.
Can't say the same of Windows or Mac OS.

Oh for sure. Putting KDE linux on some old hardware and it feels like a brand new computer. Updating from windows 8->10->11 on the other hand was always punishing.
It's crazy how slow and bloated windows has become over the years.
I love reading "This week in KDE" on KDE's blog, it's just a cool list of small incremental imrpovements each week, along with credit to MR authors.
I really enjoy that it showcases all the work that goes into making a desktop actually good, even the small things you bearly notice, things like "When a grouped Task Manager task is flashing to get your attention, opening its group popup now reveals which specific window wanted attention. (Christoph Wolk, plasma-desktop MR #4225)"
A change doesn't need to be big and flashy and make headlines, even small changes deserve to be showcased and credited
