Nate Graham also noted around 73% of KDE Plasma 6 users are already using the Wayland session.

I’m sure this is a witty remark, but I’m just out of the loop here. I know Arch is a distro, but I don’t know the culture enough to “get” the joke.
Arch is known for upgrades breaking things, which is easy enough to fix if you know the right incantation, but no beginner is going to guess that correctly, so they post to a forum, and are met with a general condescending attitude, usually several replies that amount to “if you had read the upgrade guide, you’d know what to do.” Of course when googling, you’re much more likely to find the general upgrade instructions, rather than this week’s specific upgrade guide with the known pitfalls and their fixes…
Yikes. I’m over here still struggling to remember “sudo apt-do get install (program)(version)”.
Flatpak, I love you. You click the thing, and you get the thing, and the thing just works.
I hate you, terminal.
