That's interesting, maybe it's hardware-dependent? I'm doing nixos + KDE + Wayland and I've had almost no issues in day-to-day usage and productivity. I agree

I agree with you that there's a lot of bleeding. Linux is nicer than it used to be and there's less fiddling required to get to a usable base, but still plenty of fiddling as you get into more niche usage, especially when it involves any GPU hardware/software. Yet somehow one can run Elden Ring on Steam via Proton with a few mouse clicks and no issues, which would've been inconceivable to me only a few years ago.
- Fr0styMatt88 2y agoYeah it’s pretty awesome overall. I think the issues are from a few things on my end: - I’ve upgraded through a few iterations starting with Plasma 6, so my dotfiles might be a bit wonky. I’m not using Home Manager so my dotfiles are stateful. - Could be very particular to my dock setup as I have two docks + one of the clock widgets. - Could be the particular wallpaper I’m using (it’s one of the dynamic ones that comes with KDE). - It wouldn’t surprise me if it’s related to audio somehow as I have Bluetooth set-up for when I need it. I’m sure it’ll settle soon enough :)
- postcert 2y agoI've been having a similar flakiness with plasma on Nixos (proprietary + 3070 as well). Sadly can't say whether it did{n't} happen on another distro as I last used Arch around the v535 driver. I found it funny how silently it would fail at times. After coming out of a game or focusing on something I'd scratch my head as to where did the docks/background went. I'd say you're lucky in that it recovered itself, generally I needed to run `plasmashell` in the alt+f2 run prompt.
