Developers do not look for reports on social media, so they will not see it and all it does is clutter up the feed.

Some time ago (I think january) Amarok, was updated in Debian, from 2.9.x to 3.x (now it is 3.2.2). After the upgrade Amarok no longer showed the things from the database (lyrics, listen counts, etc).

I would like to restore the statistics database but I did not find the steps. Could you point me to the right instructions, or provide some advice about how to work on this?

Just found out about this guy on YouTube named Nuxttux because I've been trying to make some social media videos.

Kdenlive is a completely different beast than the one that I remember using a couple of years ago. It has so much functionality in it, like all the "TikTok effects", proxy clips, rendering previews, visualizing effect curves between keyframes... like damn. This is actually legit software now for my basic needs.

The thing is, it seems like these were all added in the past 2 years, because I had 23.x installed through the Debian repo and I upgraded through Flatpak to 24.12 and it seems to have added all of these?

Anyway holy shit. Go give these guys some money. This is game changing

I looked at KWin::Window on the Kwin scripting API page but didn’t find any ways to make a given window become maximized.

I configured steam to open on a separate desktop using window rules, but it also grabs the attention and plasma will automatically switch to the desktop it opened to. Is there a way to stop that from happening?

Steam opens 3 windows, so switching to another desktop will be reverted 3 times.

I did some looking and there doesn't seem to be one, unless you know of any. Ideally I want a modal file manager like Yazi: it's keys are highly inspired by vim with H J K L navigation (H & L for traversing directories), a visual mode for selecting files, and lots of commands and customization. The one thing its missing is a grid view to preview image files. None of the orthodox file manager seem to have one, including Krusader which I just looked at. I'd love to finally stop using the mouse for file management and could go with either a TUI or GUI manager.
