With only 91 days left before launch, today we are releasing the 1st Beta of Plasma 6.
https://kde.org/announcements/megarelease/6/beta1/
This is the time when we call on all testers to download and install it, and stress-test all its features.
WARNING: This is #betasoftware, lots of things are untested and can fail. We strongly recommend you do NOT use it in a production environments. The Beta release should only be used for testing and reporting bugs.
Neon Unstable Edition is already ready with the updates,
but other unstable repositories of other distros will soon be available too. Look out for openSUSE, Arch, Kubuntu, Fedora, and more.

Can I just enable the KDE-unstable repo in arch and test?
EDIT: Yes, just follow the wiki and reboot!
HDR (for games) here we gooo
Edit 2: Ok, gotta wait a bit more for the great work of Zamundaaa to be merged. Can’t wait!
Let’s hope the HDR is better than Windows the last time I tried it.
Not just yet! For now only the desktop has HDR gamma and color settings, don’t expect more than that until more patches arrive.
And I understand that, at least in this first release, the objective is to have gaming hdr, not movies nor images…
dont seem to get the new build. did you do anything exept adding the repo in pacman.conf
Make sure you follow the wiki: you need to put the repo at the top of the list!
