KDE Plasma 5.18 LTS released

A brand new version of the Plasma desktop is now available. In Plasma 5.18 you will find neat new features that make notifications clearer, settings more streamlined and the overall look more attractive. Plasma 5.18 is easier and more fun to use, while at the same time allowing you to be more productive when it is time to work.

A lot welcome changes and polish, and I'm particularly pleased with the death of the insipid 'cashew' menu that resided in the top-right of the KDE desktop. You had to dive into the settings to remove it, but now it's been replaced by a global edit mode that's entirely invisible until you enable it, following in the footsteps of similar edit modes in Cinnamon and other user interfaces.
