KDE Plasma, the only choice for artists.

With KDE dropping X11 entirely, having just switched to Linux as a creative who uses pen displays with touchscreens, this is worrying to me. Currently KDE Plasma X11 is the only desktop environment that does not force kernel level system-wide touchscreen gestures that you cannot turn off. This interferes with another KDE project that's very popular, going on 20 years now, Krita. Try it yourself. Configure a drawing tablet / cintiq that has touch. It's not only cumbersome but often seems to work, only to be totally screwed up once you enter your drawing application.

Please KDE fix. the. problems. with. touchscreens. Let us turn off the gestures ENTIRELY.

Two finger undo, three finger redo? Pinch zoom? Might partially work in some setups but only properly under X11 Plasma. (I'm on debian trixie atm)

(read more here on touchscreens / tablets / krita https://www.davidrevoy.com/article1030/debian-12-kde-plasma-2024-install-guide )

Try it. I guess I'll have to keep barking about this like others have for years... besides that..loving Linux! Never going back. -angry old artist dude

What is the best video editing software for linux?

Hi all, I used to do a bit of video editing a while back when I was on windows, nothing crazy just some very basic stuff I guess, I used davinci resolve for all my editing so that's what I'm used to.

I've recently swapped over to CachyOS and I'm looking to edit some more youtube videos, I've heard davinci resolve doesn't work properly on linux and I'm not sure what alternatives there are.

So could any of you help suggest me something that's similar to davinici resolve, or if there is a proper fix to get davinci working on linux could you link me to it?

Pretty much it. I missed the one I had on Cinnamon so I did one for Plasma 6, there it is.

Thing is I am not really any good at coding and I'm sure it is still quite buggy and I'm having problems to make translated versions so I'm accepting tips on how to not screw this completely.

Unironically 2026 is "The" Year of the GNU/Linux & BSDs Desktop

It's the new Steam Machine. It's SteamOS, Arch, Bazzite. All GNU/Linux and BSDs for that matter. I'm a XNU/Darwin is "Not" UNIX girly, and I'm involved in that world for most of my computing. But I do build computers and unfortunately have one "PC" running Windows 11 Pro w/ WSL2 Debian plaguing my space out of necessity. I started using GNU/Linux here and there for various projects waaay back in 2012 when I was just a child on Ubuntu. Learning a lot more recently ever since the announcement and I'm starting to fall in love with GNU/Linux and the BSDs even more so than before (Debian, Arch/EndeavourOS, NixOS, etcetera such as FreeBSD plus OpenBSD and so on). That's happening a lot more with people my age, and by extension future users. But the normies? Every post I see from the normies in regard to the Steam Machine is excitement. And most importantly, preparations to finally switch. Got my Gen X father-in-law on Debian, he loves it. My wife is begging me to image their desktop with Bazzite, and I will very soon.
