Hello!

Do you hate the watermark preview banner?

Add the text HideDesktopPreviewBanner=true just after [General] in the file ~/.config/kdeglobals. You will have something as the following:

[General]
HideDesktopPreviewBanner=true

Better for OLEDs displays, stylish, auto-suspend all-blacks displays, etc.

Thank you SO MUCH. I installed the nightly version a few weeks ago and this was really bothering me.

Huh? That looks like Windows 10 wtf

It is just for the nightly releases to clarify which version you are working with. Nothing that will come to the stable channel.

I understand this, but i thought KDE has their own design and fonts.

It's just a weird decision that's what i mean

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

AFAIK it is using the system font so I don't know what the problem is.

No it is a disclaimer that that is not released software and will have bugs

It's to facilitate the transition to Linux for Windows users

How could "tHe OpEnSouRcE ComMunItY" dare to open an issue if there is a problem.

This attitude is stupid and doesnt help the project.
