If you encounter a bug, proceed to https://bugs.kde.org/, check whether it has been reported.

Developers do not look for reports on social media, so they will not see it and all it does is clutter up the feed.

Can you enable wobbly windows in the car?

Only at sufficient highway speeds.

Oh Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes-Benz?

We'll raffle one off at the next Akademy!

[Ed.: No we won't. We aren't even allowed legally to do that. But maybe come to Akademy anyway.]

My friends all drive Porsches. I must make amends.

Yeah, they're really dropping the ball here on the important stuff...

[–] Bro666@lemmy.kde.social 2 points 2 months ago

Correct, to our chagrin. But it is there. KDE developers actually worked on it and implemented it. See the linked video. It is only a few minutes long.
