Plasma 5.21

Plasma 5.21 is all about upgrading the looks and usability of Plasma.

Find, reach and run your apps faster and easier than ever with Plasma’s new app launcher.

The new launcher features two panes to make it simple to locate your programs and comes with improved keyboard, mouse, and touch input, boosting accessibility across the board.

Support for languages with right-to-left writing (such as Japanese and Arabic) has also improved. We have also included an alphabetical “All Applications” view, a grid view for your favorite tools, and placed all the power actions (“Sleep”, “Restart”, “Shut Down”, etc.) at the bottom of the launcher pop-up so they are always visible and available.

Last but not least, we have fixed most of the bugs reported by users, guaranteeing a smoother access to all your stuff.

If you prefer the old Kickoff app launcher however, it is only few clicks away in KDE’s software store.
