@kde another feature forced really hard on users, with Konsole this time: the color preview

I can't remember when this landed in KDE as it just added to the list of "new KDE features" I tried to ignore while struggling to keep focus, but that list never ceases to expand 😬

moreover, the option to disable that color preview feature I don't need is burried deep: the only way to turn it off is by creating a new Konsole profile 🤦‍♂️

omg KDE if it ain't broken, fix it until it is? in c/kde@lemmy.kde.social

@kde solved by running "sudo downgrade kcalc" and selecting the latest 22.x version and adding kcalc to IgnorePkg

yes it's brutal, but breaking a11y support is worse

spammers aren't the only bad actors 😉

I really hope KDE will come to their senses and allow more login options

thanks for the good advice, looks like most important feedback has already been given so I'll pass

also the account creation disclaimer is scary

@mox wow that's even worse than losing continuity for the sakes of that new history feature (using Kcalc version 24.05.0)

here's what I did before getting the input error:

2*2 [enter]

*2 [enter]

I was expecting to read "8" but got "input error" instead

@Xirup thanks! it looks perfect for keyboard interactions and the undo feature is super neat 👍

I'll still keep Kcalc for the binary edition though
