Whats the main challenge in KDE adoption for New users, and how can it be addressed?
That's why I developed Klassy to try and experiment with alternatives, and tried to make the window decoration icons more like what was in KDE1 and visually represent the window shape. I would also be willing to make a simpler, stripped-down version with fewer configuration options if necessary.

Somebody want to help revive Adapta KDE?
If you want to bypass problems in Aurorae, you can almost exactly recreate that window decoration using Klassy and the "use system icon theme" with Papirus icons:

Klassy v4.3 customizable window decoration and application style released for Plasma 5.27
See discussion at: https://github.com/paulmcauley/klassy/issues/61

Manually block auto suspend and screen locking from commandline or a keyboard shortcut
Not so straightforward setup but here you go: - Plasma theme: Modified lightly-plasma - Application theme: this fork of Lightly - Window decoration: Klassy - Window rounded corners: (LightlyShaders KWin effect)[https://github.com/a-parhom/LightlyShaders/] - Wallpaper - Plasma and everything else colors: kde-material-you-colors

Why do so many window decorations have massive Borders? (Ay fix?)
Breeze isn't affected because it's written as C++ code instead of just using images and a text config file, but the downside is that it's a lot more complicated to create a custom one (the only one I know of that still appears to see some development is Klassy, which is a fork of Breeze).
- Window decorations not blurring
-
I can't figure out how to make the top of the windows transparent with Kvantum.
Try installing Klassy windows decoration. It has option to configure the amount of transparency. If it doesn't work too, there some issue that would need a bug report
- What's up with Klassy window decoration? Is it impossible to use it anymore?
- Why the awful desktop and logout / lock screen freeze has not been fixed yet?
- If you dont complain you get nothing! What features/bug fixes you want to see in future KDE

My custom HUD setup for plasma. Works with both GTK, Qt and electron app (everything with dbusmenu). Works on X11 and Wayland. Link- https://github.com/Zren/plasma-hud, Theme- https://github.com.cnpmjs.org/undiabler/nord-rofi-theme
The guy who created latte dock maintains a trio of widgets (https://github.com/psifidotos/applet-window-appmenu, https://github.com/psifidotos/applet-window-buttons, https://github.com/psifidotos/applet-window-title) which are just PERFECT for that purpose. They don't require you to run latte, but it helps if you have more than one screen.

Can I combine Windows Title and Window Appmenu applets on Latte panel so that window title fills up available space but does not truncate the appmenu?
Yeah, I know, the other issue is here: https://github.com/psifidotos/applet-window-title/issues/33 , I hope that gets addressed evetually:-).
- I ended liking GNOME with the loss of one hand

Going to give KDE Plasma a real try, any "essential tweaks" or distro suggestions?
If you want multiple panels in a Unity like layout, I found it easier to do that with latte dock than with the builtin panels. I also like using this Plasma applet to display window title in a plasma/latte panel.
