also been working on more desktop icon fixes, they still need more love but the probability of them jumping around should be much lower again

Pretty sure all color emojis are raster images, on all OSes.
Modern Mac OS is based on Quartz, which could also be called Display PDF, and you could even change it to save screenshots as PDFs, but it's all just a raster inside the PDF. No part of it is saved as a vector.
#KDE #Plasma uses SVG extensively for UI elements. It'd be the best candidate for a true vector-based GUI.

I'm not gonna say "friggin' finally", but friggin' finally... *cough*
I've gone over to light mode in the day, in a very solarized manner. I like light pastell colors and it works well when writing and even coding.
But at night? Blisters, blisters in my eyes. I just it manually now, but I hope the implementation does smooth transitioning and such.
#KDE #Plasma Adding Auto Day/Night Theme Switching - OMG! Ubuntu

OMG! Ubuntu · KDE Plasma 6.5 Gains Auto Day/Night Theme SwitchingKDE Plasma 6.5 will finally include automatic day/night theme switching, to change light/dark Global Themes based on the time of the day.
This afternoon I tried to boot a KDE Linux image on my mini PC. Plasma kept crashing, so I couldn't try it out.
I'll wait for the next snapshot.
The bug I had reported to KDE about Filelight got fixed within a couple of days. Just a reminder to everyone, report every bug you encounter (after making sure nobody has already reported it of course). This is the smallest contribution anyone can have in the development and progress of FOSS projects.
My #Fedora 42 #KDE #Plasma keeps crashing. It's updated to the latest versions, but when I login, I immediately get the Crash handler 'plasmashell has closed unexpectedly'
And when I click 'see developer information', the crash handler also crashes.
I tried removing all programs from autostart and removing the plasmashellrc.
When I login with a new user there's no issue.
How to troubleshoot further?

@beejay I always tell people to follow the paradigm of the operating system they use. #Fedora does have spins with #Plasma and with #Sway, but it’s definitely the default #Gnome that sees the most testing. (EDIT: Wrong by me. Plasma is a first class citizen.)
That said, I’ve been using Fedora for years and it’s been rock solid for me (on AMD64 and with AMD or Intel graphics (gaming computer and laptop respectively)).
If you want something interesting that defaults to Plasma I suggest #OpenSUSE #Tumbleweed - it’s rolling, so has even faster turnaround than Fedora, but feels more well-tested and definitely easier to get started with than #Arch, so far.

@craftyguy No I'd rather see #KDE #plasma running on it of course 
hopefully this will fix some annoying bugs with desktop icons moving about (theres likely more but anyway)

A Sprite From Orbit
A sprite, also known as a red sprite, is an upper-atmospheric electrical discharge sometimes seen from thunderstorms. Unlike lightning, sprites discharge upward from the storm toward the ionosphere. This particular one was captured by an astronaut aboard the International Space Station. That’s a pretty incredible feat because sprites typically only last a millisecond or so. The first one wasn’t photographed until 1989. (Image credit: NASA; via P. Byrne)
openSUSE Tumbleweed has been powering my mini PC (my main daily driver, with KDE Plasma) since early may and I am really satisfied with it.
I'd love to run one of the BSDs there, but this setup is doing great.
