Ye, just install it and you're done.

No

It looks great

open system settings and customize to your hearts desire

5.12 looks gr8 after you make the panel dark.

Debian also annoys the hell of mr. Torvalds and that article is from KDE4 days iirc.

Use breeze-dark and you are good to go.

have fun with no calculator

Try not using 1024x768 resolution, the largest size the clock widget will scale to, and the most garish wallpaper you could find.

It's the most customizable DE that exists, and you don't even have to open any config files. Just don't be dumb and it can look however you want it to.

Obviously.
If your desktop looks like this, you can do several things.
Remove the analog clock and the desktop icon in the panel.
Remove the menu in the top left corner and lock widgets to remove the one in the bottom right.
If you are so autistic you want to use a menu over the launcher (I get it, all other launchers suck compared to krunner, but you can't free a fish from water), use the one called application menu, it is the least cancerous option.

yes, take the "designers" to a UX bootcamp

MUH CALCULATOR

More like "Muh lack of common sense"

Common sense would be to install a general use desktop distro if that's what you need instead or complaining that a KDE testing distro doesn't cater to the needs that it isn't trying to cater to. What's next, Arch sucks because it doesn't come with an installer that configures everything for you

it is a DE, a Desktop Enviroment, it should have a calculator

KDE project does provide a calculator, KCalc. In most distros that setup KDE Plasma for you, it does come with the calculator. For example Kubuntu and openSUSE. So is your issue that KDE project doesn't force every distro to package all of their programs etc or that KDE Neon specifically, which is one distro among many that configures Plasma for you, doesn't come with it?

>KDE project does provide a calculator
Not in their own distro

A Shell is not a DE, it is just part of it

you
sure, blame the users for KDE developers retardation

KDE Neon is mostly a distro to showcase Plasma and have the latest KDE stuff. If you want to a fullfeatured desktop, you're better off with somehing like openSUSE (which is pretty great IMO). So if you go with KDE Neon knowing what it is and complain that it isn't what you want it is, I don't really know whar to say other than that if you don't like to be called a retarded, you could always stop acting like one.

user, it's just a troll. The calculator thing is only an excuse to try and bait people into a discussion.
Just ignore it.

wallpaper needs some work, but I think it's getting there.

KDE is still a resource hog or it's usable on laptops?

KDE uses as many resources as you let it. You can make it as lean as XFCE if you really want.

Unlike file picker thumbnails or desktop icons, it's completely obsolete.

Krunner alone is reason to use KDE.

I'm using it on ThinkPad X230 with all the openSUSE bloat. Runs without any issues.

just run windows on it

Bump.
