Still waiting on reliable headless KDE wayland remote sessions to make the jump to Plasma.

This looks so good!

I'm happy about the dedicated animations settings page. It would be great, however, if we could adjust the animation speed of each one individually, though.

Hopefully Wayland will work with my GTX 1050.... (please)

Kde and plasma are so insanely great, and they just keep getting better.
