KDE roadmap for 2021

KDE developer Nate Graham has penned a post detailing some of the things the KDE project is working on that should come to full fruition next year. There's quite a few things here, but the biggest one is probably KDE's maturing support for Wayland.

I'll be honest: before 2020 the Plasma Wayland session felt like a mess to me. Nothing worked properly. But all of this changed in 2020: suddenly things started working properly. I expect the trend of serious, concentrated Wayland work to continue in 2021, and finally make Plasma Wayland session usable for an increasing number of people's production workflows.

That's good news, and I hope the move to Wayland fixes my biggest issue with Linux on laptops: playing video is a massive assault on your battery and fans.
