Hacker News Reader

I'm still surprised at how smooth KDE Plasma + Wayland + Input actions on Arch feels on a fresh install on my new HP AMD laptop.

The Only slightly wonky thing has been the fingerprint reader. Other than that my Linux set up now feels smoother than my office Mac. AND I get way better battery life compared to Windows on the same machine.

Special call outs to: kwin, dolphin, yakuake, kde-connect

I was pleasantly surprised, that a recent update for plasma fixed the fingerprint reader for my thinkpad t15. It previously had an issue, where it didn't work after waking from suspend.

Wow.. looks like this is the case with my HP too.. very plesant surprise indeed.. just opened my personal laptop after a week of sleep. battery is still 60%+ and fingerprint unlock works!
