KDE Plasma 6.0 is expected to come next summer. What are your expectations?
sddm is no KDE project, btw. One or two KDE developers contribute to sddm but the actual maintainer no longer cares to put out releases (he thinks he can develop an entire Plasma competitor as a one-man project). Fedora switched to a tested git snapshot for this reason.

[Steam Deck] Opinion: Desktop Mode is poorly designed/implemented.
Would it be better for Valve to consider "mobile-first" frameworks like Maui Kit or DE like Maui Shell? Considering these particular solutions are not very popular, I would still love to see first-class support for Linux desktop with great touch controls on the Deck. I think I would be a great opportunity for beginners to play around with Linux.
