In addition to everything listed here, there’s something big that I can’t mention yet since it’s not 100% merged yet, but only 95%! Hopefully next week. 🙂 So stay tuned for that!
Nate's a hype man
I don't mean to sound like an a-hole, but when will the KDEConnect's ever-appearing "accept" pop-up when remote-mousing work properly?
EDIT (MONTHS LATER): IT WORKS PERFECTLY NOW ❤️
- There's still a bunch of little bugs in KDE6, they'll get ironed out over time. For the KDE connect bug I use a ydotool command to emulate an enter key press to accept the remote command access from my bed.
  
  That's a great workaround, could you share the command?
The Power and Battery widget now responds to middle-clicks and scrolls: middle-click will block or re-enable automatic sleep and screen locking, and scrolling will change the active power profile
Scrolling on the battery applet is how I adjust my brightness. Is that no longer a thing?
- There's now a separated luminosity applet that will change brightness if you scroll on it (normally, didn't check, I'm on my phone).
Apparently in Lemmy you can't post a URL and an image 🤷.
- Yea it's one or the other, so that it federates nicely
  What I do is link the URL in the main post (to get a thumbnail, and because that's what people expect), and the image in the post body. You can insert it like this
  ![alt text](image URL)
  
  Ah I see it's just Lemmy failing to get the thumbnail that I was trying to fix. I guess it's just something in Lemmy's code.
- You can use the text field to drop an image link.
