  • Plasma 6.1 on Wayland now has a feature that “remembers” what you were doing in your last session like it did under X11. Although this is still work in progress, If you log off and shut down your computer with a dozen open windows, Plasma will now open them for you the next time you power up your desktop, making it faster and easier to get back to what you were doing.

    Maybe I’m just a boomer but this feature is so incredibly annoying to me and is one of the first things I disable on new installs



  • Nowhere on that page does it say that the browser is still tracking them. The whole point of the lawsuit, which Google just settled, is that that verbage is not clear enough to nontechnical users that Google still knows what sites they’re visiting. People don’t know shit about computers, if they advertise a “privacy feature” that says their searches and history aren’t being saved, they assume they’re not being tracked. People absolutely should have a basic understanding of data privacy but that doesn’t mean it’s okay to take advantage of those who don’t.
