From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I only get a couple of problems.

A panel that wraps content is sized to one icon when logging in for the first time
Plasma Shell occasionally crashes and restarts

But then, I'm not running a stock plasma, I have a few add-ons compiled from source and a few widgets downloaded from the get new things. One of those could be causing the crash but I haven't proved that yet. I'm fairly sure the panel is a plasma bug.

Edit: Oh and sorting pinned icons in the icons only taskbar is a real pain in wayland.

Edit 2: It seems the sorting has been fixed since I last did it ~~and I haven't had the crash since the last plasma update~~
