An official blog post about KDE Plasma 6.7 was released: Link.

So Lets Roast it like I did with the firefox one (Link)

Plasma 6.7 brings powerful new features to KDE’s classic desktop, and refines its user experience to new levels.

Enjoy thoughtfully-designed improvements that solve real problems, a sneak peak of future theming bliss, better performance, and more.

So the expected changes need to be:

Powerful
New
Refined user expereience
Solves REAL PROBLEMS
and better performance.

Keep that in mind...

Per-screen virtual desktops

After 21 years, hopefully it will have been worth the wait… per-screen virtual desktops have finally arrived!

A side from their servers running on a potato chip, which caused the videos not to load, I had to use archive.org to view them, and I to my surprise, the video demonstration doesn't show anything, I could hardly understand what this feature is.


but assuming it means you could "Fullscreen a virtual desktop in another screen", it becomes embarresement that this toke them 21 years, I hope whoever ask for this back in 2005 is still alive to see his requested feature became a reality.

Test your microphone volume

No more being told your audio is too loud or quiet, or wondering if it’s your microphone or an app that’s misbehaving.

I feel sorry for the cave men that used the software's builtin tests to check their microphone volume, calling this a new feature or powerful something is an embarresement really.

Press-and-hold for special characters

With Plasma’s virtual keyboard enabled, press and hold a key to type special characters related to it.

Thanks for saving me the burden of opening that "symbols software" to search for a E letter with a hat.
hopefully this is considered powerful feature.

Light/dark mode toggle
In Plasma 6.6, we introduced the ability to create your own Global Themes, and switch between them as part of the day-night cycle. Plasma 6.7 puts you even more in control with a quick toggle to switch between light and dark Global Themes immediately.

So you moved the light/dark mode toggle from the settings panel to the widget at the bottom right cornor, saving me like 2 seconds?
too powerful really, but I am not even the kind of guy that keeps switching between light and dark themes, I remain DARK the whole time.

and in fact for users who have OLED screen, it is probably a good idea to remain in dark theme, as that delays the screen burnouts.

Vietnamese lunar calendar
Plasma 6.7 adds the Vietnamese lunar calendar to its available set of non-Gregorian calendars. Now you can keep up with dates and events using both calendar systems with more ease than ever!

The new thing here is me knowing there is a "Vietnamese lunar calendar" in the first place.

“Background Apps” in the System Tray
The System Tray is already the place for monitoring apps running in the background using traditional methods. Plasma 6.7 extends this support by also showing apps using the newer “Background Apps” system, which is more common for apps using the Flatpak package format.

At last, after ages of fighting against MacroGarbage, we finally added a background app in the system tray, which existed back on Widnows 98

Now normies have no reason to remain on windows, Linux is feature complete with this breakthrough.

Printing
Plasma’s printing support continues to mature. Now the System Tray icon for printers shows the number of active jobs in a little badge.

So lets just simulate what KDE team did here, they simply toke the printer queues, measured their length, and did a Print(), on the system tray, and called it a powerful refined high performance new feature.

On the enterprise side, Plasma 6.7 makes it substantially easier to connect to shared printers on Windows networks, and a new print queue management tool offers more power than ever before to those administering multiple frequently-used printers — while remaining simple and comprehensible enough for home use, too.

this is possible the only useful thing in this update, so lets skip to:

Theming and styling:
Something old, something new

Oxygen


In preparation for KDE’s 30th anniversary later this year, we’ve brought the Oxygen theme — used by default in KDE 4 — back up to par with the current Breeze theme.

Some nestalgia I guess.

Breeze
The default Breeze theme also continues to evolve, now featuring rounded list and grid view highlights for many applications, and visible click effects for menu items.

Imagine if Dig came tomorrow and added an annoncement that covers his entire website, saying: "Greetings my visitors, I have added to any button in my website, and this is a New POWERFUL REFINED USER EXPEREIENCE HIGH PERFORMANCE FEATURE"

if that sounds like a good april fool (unlike the cringe ones he have been doing, also I am against april fools), then thats what KDE is doing by telling you about every micro change that suppose to be in the list of "Other changes".


------------------------------------------------------------

So that's it, basically KDE Team now appear more like an advertising agency then a developers team, they make small or useless changes no body asked for, and praise it as if they made a breakthrough in linux desktop, and pushed the world towards a universal desktop expereience.

This and despite their software crashing more times than your average drunk driver in california, and I myself have suffered (really), from this, they simply REFUSE to do what the users are asking, WE JUST WANT YOUR SOFTWARE TO NOT CRASH, but you REFUSE to listen, and I am not even asking you to convert to Islam, I am asking you to simply DO YOUR JOB THE RIGHT WAY, LIKE HOW HARD THAT CAN BE !

Imagine the wasted money that went supporting KDE team, that money could have went to better developers, who acctually knows how to make a functional software...
