This week in KDE: Tons of UI improvements and bugfixes

Tangential, but:

KDE Connect [0] is an awesome app that does not require the KDE desktop. I use it with Xubuntu/Android. You can:

- Share files and links between phone/computer.

- Control music and video with the smartphone app.

- Ring your phone from your computer.

- Use your phone as a trackpad.

- Get notifications from your phone on your computer.

- Control music/videos/youtube on your computer from your phone.

- And more....

Just a great app!! It's so good that I'm planning to try out KDE after using Xubuntu for at least a decade.

Indeed. I run a gnome desktop. Pinephone runs valent, which is a gtk4 kde connect client. Flawless.

It's one of the unsung hero bits of software. Needs to be in use by way more people.

There's an official windows/Mac client and an unofficial GNOME one fyi!
