TIL SDDM hasn’t gotten to 1.0 yet.
Many projects also deliberately avoid publishing a version 1.0. For example, the static website generator Hugo continued with 0.100.0 after version 0.99.1. The current version is 0.123.3.
This is mostly due to the fact that some users have the wrong expectations. For example, that version 1.0 is as good as error-free and fully developed.
How long has it been the de facto default greeter for KDE Plasma?
Since Plasma 5 if I’m not mistaken. Before that, KDM was the standard.
Based on https://docs.atuin.sh/configuration/config/#search_mode, “fuzzy search” is used as standard.
On Arch Linux, Plasma 6.0.1 was released a few minutes ago in the testing package sources.
I am curious if this version will reach the official repositories or if there are still reasons to delay an official release.
Edit: That went faster than expected. Plasma 6.0.1 has been moved from Testing to Extra.
That depends on the beginner. We should consider which distribution to recommend depending on the user. Not every Linux newcomer is a typical Windows end user.
Apart from that, in my opinion, the relevant passage in the article is more about distributions that stand out from others. In my opinion, Arch is therefore only an example in this case and not a direct recommendation.
