Just installed KDE Plasma on my Ubuntu system to replace GNOME and Wayland. Mainly to get rid of an issue where my games would lose mouse lock, but now I can have two different wallpapers on both monitors and have a clock on my second monitor which is AWESOME.

I WISH I INSTALLED IT SOONER, I LOVE IT.

IDK what is up with Kubuntu, but it always has show-stopping bugs when I use it. I think it's the reason everyone thinks Plasma is buggy. Any other distro seems to work fine with Plasma.

Interesting, I wonder if I'm avoiding these by using the backports lol

Possibly. I can't say I've ever tried to add Plasma to vanilla Ubuntu, other than trying out Kubuntu every once in a while when I try to put a new linux user on something, I've been off Ubuntu for well over a decade.
