    For my own learning and understanding, why does it take that long for GNOME on Arch?

      Afaik they’re waiting for version xx.1 with bug fixes. Idk if GNOME is unstable in xx.0 and idk why it has such a special place on Arch but what I do know is that Plasma 6 is quite bad now with its 6.0.2 so I guess this delay is a good idea because I’m a GNOME user and I want stable experience

        The added benefit in the delay on Arch is that most maintained extensions will have already been made compatible by the time it hits the repos.

        Don’t think it’s bad? It seems to have been a great release with Plasma 6. Don’t have any issues myself and haven’t seen anything major. But maybe I missed it.

        • Idk about your hardware but on mine it’s not good. There were even full desktop crashes (the ones that make systemd boot log appear and only switching to a different session can make the system usable again). Btw I noticed issues on both Xorg and Wayland smh. Can’t remember them now though
