Is there a way to revert back to Plasma 5.27?

I don’t think #Plasma6 is ready for prime time. When I open apps, the title bar goes above the screen space and I can’t move or close the app or use the menus.

    As a workaround, in plasma you can move a window by grabbing anywhere with the mouse if you just hold super or alt first - depending on how you have it configured. Same for resizing using the right mouse button. I never rely on borders or title bars for these things.

    I would never upgrade without doing a backup of my system so I could revert back. I assume you did not do this?

    Oh boy! Please don’t tell me it’s not usable. There is no way around it when running Arch and it’s derivatives. 😂 I don’t know how long I can hold off on updating.

      Under Arch it hasn’t dropped to Stable yet, so unless you are running the testing branch, you won’t have to worry. I think it took 5.27 two weeks or so to get to the stable branch after its “release,” so you are probably looking at early to mid March. By then, we should also have Plasma 6.1 drop, ie, updates.

        It depends on the distro you’re running it on. There should be an option on the lock screen to switch to x.

    Can’t you right click => maximize on the task in taskbar? Or meta + page up on keyboard
