This Week in Plasma: inertial scrolling, RDP clipboard syncing, and more session restore - KDE Blogs

Welcome to a new issue of This Week in Plasma!

Every week we cover the highlights of what’s happening in the world of KDE Plasma and its associated apps like Discover, System Monitor, and more.

There ought to be a ATOM/RSS feed for these blogs.

Hey @Scream!
You can find an RSS feed by going to the KDE Blogs website, then clicking on the RSS logo :wink:

Holy maccaroni, again mountains have been moved by the devs. Thank you all!

@Screm, Discourse provides them:

I’ve confirmed that they are available for categories (like Community > Blogs) too! [1]

Finally inertia scrolling is here! I was following this issue for a year. Glad it eventually arrived in KDE.

It’s only for qtquick so no inertial scrolling where it is needed (eg okular, dolphin)

Very nice!! I wonder if Plasma’s Welcome Center should also teach people about Meta+click to move windows? I find it immensely useful.

Ugh, not only is intertia scrolling horrible on some touchpads, it also leaves us in a super inconsistent state where some places and applications have it, and some don’t.

Please, for the love of god, give us a possibility to disable that

Thanks this worked for me.

Yep it is there at the top. Due to force of habit, I scrolled to the bottom of the page and looked there.

The KDE blogs are hosted on Discourse? Or only the KDE Discussion forums? Or both?

@Scream, the Blogs are parsed from the Hugo variant of CommonMark stored in GitLab, then posted to this Discourse instance alongside a dedicated website, itself not hosted on Discourse.

To directly answer your question, the Blogs website appears to be hosted on tyran.kde.org, although that doesn’t matter in this context.
