Finally, KDE is going back to having some nice bling after slowly removing it for years.

If now they can make kwin stable, I'd be so happy

native wine under wayland ! :D

Kde plasma 6

More NixOS!!!!

I'm hoping for COSMIC to come out. It looks so promising and the fact that they implemented the panels using wlr-layer-shell is so great. I think more desktop environments should do this for interoperability

I'm still pretty new to Linux so I'm finding new stuff all the time, I've been very happy with EndeavourOS but I am planning to switch to vanilla Arch when Plasma 6 fully drops. There are other distros that have caught my attention, they're just abit beyond my skill level currently.

Only thing I'm really hoping for is improvements to Nvidia (Yes I will buy AMD next time I get the chance, I built this PC before I had any intention of using Linux)

What's exciting about Plasma 6?

I'm a Plasma user, and I can't think of anything I want them to change.

Okay, it would be cool if there were more plasmoids. That's about it.

zfs raidz expansion

I'm looking forward to hardware and firmware hacking on a Framework laptop.

I am waiting for Plasma 6 too. Maybe it will ship with Fedora 40 🤔

I hope so

And I am looking forward to Ubuntu server 24.04

Oh I know this answer! Not using Windows, right?

As a GNOME user:

A lot of development is ongoing in GNOME thanks to the Sovereign Tech Fund. I’m curious what that will bring.

Also hoping that the proposed tiling functionality will be implemented.

If Fedora would stop requiring reboots for daily updates that would be great. I might as well use windows for this kind of BS

I hope Valve will make the Index VR work again after breaking it with the 2.x updates in October :')

Bcachefs, love COW files. I wish all file systems had it even if it naively copied the whole file on first write. Sort of a write safe hard link.

What Plasma 6 feature are you waiting for?

Better mainline support for RK3588 SoC

Nothing much really. MGLRU was finally added this year to fix long-standing kernel OOM issues. Maybe some TPM stuff in systemd from Lennart. Maybe the pace of immutables will increase but who knows. Despite the occasional regressions am pretty happy with Linux.

Getting my Pinephone Pro up and running, and getting away from Google forever, finally. Also I'm gonna make the jump from Arch to either Gentoo and/or Guix, I think.
