"KDE neon is a Linux distribution built on top of the latest Ubuntu LTS release (22.04 at the moment)"

Hi,

> KDE neon is a Linux distribution built on top of the latest Ubuntu LTS release (22.04 at the moment) > > — KDE neon

Since 22.04 no longer is the latest Ubuntu LTS, is KDE neon now based on 24.04, or is it still based on 22.04 ?

It would be nice to have this info in About this System, so we wouldn't be in doubt.

Thanks

Breeze-looking BetterDiscord theme ?
  • Although off-topic, I'm already using it, but part-time because of the inability to :

    • use threads ;
    • list unjoined space rooms ;
    • jump to a message search result ;
    • make the taskbar unread indicator disappear.
  • How to prevent Discover from refreshing updates on notification click ?

    Since it just checked for updates already, hence the notification...

    Thanks

    Disable GRUB menu after offline update ?
  • No, as I said, the default is not showing.

    It never shows when booting under normal conditions.

    But, it shows when booting after an update.

    That's the exception I'd like to remove.

    Thanks

  • Disable GRUB menu after offline update ?
  • I didn't change the config at all, it's default.

  • Disable GRUB menu after offline update ?

    Hi,

    After offline updates, KDE neon shows the GRUB menu, despite being otherwise disabled.

    How to prevent that ?

    Thanks

  • Apply keyboard layout to virtual keyboard

    Hi,

    Despite my keyboard layout is French AZERTY, the virtual keyboard Maliit keeps using the QWERTY layout.

    Which Fediverse software would you recommend for long-form blog posts or photo hosting?
  • I’m wondering what you’re thinking of exactly.

    • Removing Communuties, Create post, Create community from menu ;
    • Adding local communities directly to the menu, used as categories ;
    • Adding posts from a "pages community" directly to the menu, e.g. About me ;
    • Removing Trending communities and Trending/Local/All filters from the homepage ;
    • Removing Blocks, Languages, Show NSFW content, Blur NSFW content, Bot Account, Show Bot Accounts, Show Read Posts, Import/Export Settings from settings ;

    without upvoting etc. and related sorting options?

    No, these are useful.

    Probably a bit of a facelift too and some elements that make it clear what community/blog you’re looking at?

    Yes.

    As I’m writing this I’m thinking that it would probably make sense to have a built in web view specifically for outsiders to see a community as a blog.

    A blog-focused front-end, as you said. Either that, or customization of the official front-end (but not while unstable).

  • Virtual keyboard not showing on non-KDE apps
  • But what about the virtual keyboard ?

  • Virtual keyboard not showing on non-KDE apps
  • Anyway, it's not just Discord, but any Electron app, like Element for Matrix, Signal, etc. the additional command-line arguments don't work on these either.

    And what about VLC ? Also, my browser is Brave, also Chromium-based, on which the virtual keyboard doesn't appear either.

    Thanks

  • Virtual keyboard not showing on non-KDE apps
  • I already checked and there are plugins I'd miss very much.

  • Which Fediverse software would you recommend for long-form blog posts or photo hosting?
  • Yeah I already studied all federated blogging options, unfortunately none actually federate like true Fediverse apps.

    I suspect some backend features would be required too

    Hmm, there sure could be useful additions but I don't think it's missing anything required though, on the back-end.

    The front-end, however, is far from being usable for a blog.

    Front end might be lacking in someway but that alone goes pretty far.

    Well, a Lemmy front-end, whether official or third-party, for a blog, makes sense for an existing Lemmy user, but for sure doesn't for anyone not knowing what Lemmy is, that's why customization is required on this part.

  • Unfortunately, it's not changing anything, also I'm using BetterDiscord. Thanks

  • What federated platform do you use for blogging?
  • Hi,

    Did anyone try this yet ?

  • Hi,

    A neat blog-focused front-end would actually be super awesome IMO.

    I so agree. Did you find any ?

    At first I considered using the official Lemmy UI with custom CSS & JS injected, but versioning is still zero-based (0.y.z), which means breaking changes can happen at any time, and that can cause huge issues with customization.

    Now I'm considering alternative clients, like Alexandrite, but it's unsupported despite being maintained.

    Many want to be on the fediverse but interact just through blogs. A sort of blogo-verse (not sphere).

    Did anyone achieve this yet, whether using Lemmy or something else ?

    Thanks

  • How do you search inside a community?
  • However, I just discovered the Alexandrite alternative web client has this feature ! 🎉

  • Virtual keyboard not showing on non-KDE apps
  • Wayland, on KDE neon 6. Thanks

  • Virtual keyboard not showing on non-KDE apps
  • Those apps are probably running under X11. Make sure they are running with native Wayland support

    How do I check these ?

    for Chromium apps you should add --ozone-platform=wayland --enable-wayland-ime to the command line arguments

    Where ?

    Thanks

  • How do you search inside a community?
  • Hey,

    I just noticed this as well, then found your post through my search engine, then was about to proceed in creating a new feature request on GitHub, but noticed I actually already did (Search input in community sidebar · Issue #1648 · LemmyNet/lemmy-ui), merely days before you posted this !

    And maintainers have yet to respond to it, so I pinged them, hoping it will help move things along. 🤞

  • Virtual keyboard not showing on non-KDE apps

    Hi,

    Maliit is selected in virtual keyboard settings, it shows up when using a KDE app like Dolphin or Konsole, but it doesn't show up when using a non-KDE app like VLC or Discord.

    How to fix this ?

    Thanks

    codeberg.org Improve profiles UX

    Hello, Firefox has a [profiles](https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-manager-create-remove-switch-firefox-profiles) feature, but isn't easy to use like Chromium's. As it fits LivreWolf's goal, it would be nice to improve this feature's usability for end users. Thanks
