It looks like KDE Plasma is getting usable with Wayland!

I want to share some of my experiences with KDE Plasma Themes in this post. These themes are pretty powerful, but, as it often happens with KDE and its configuration capabilities, it might not be immediately clear how to benefit from all its power and all its themes’ power.

In this post I’ll detail the steps to use HiDPI with KDE if you have a high resolution display (for example, I have that in my Linux Dell M3800). Remember that the settings you change […]
