    First it had an issue where it would not open by itself (without being attached to a file) but I think that is fixed?

    I am a very old school user, so I don’t like the very minimal menu system on the editor. Prefer a more traditional look and feel.

    And don’t know if it MarkText or Markdown in general, but the formatting of the file (bullets, spacing, etc.) can change quite radically if I open a file in MarkText or some other MD editor. Tables are kind of an issue as well.

    This is a fantastic project and I wish you the best of luck with it and hope you have lots of attendees.

    I do think there is a business opportunity (or perhaps a charitable one) of refurbishing/reselling older machines by doing just what your seminars are doing, but installing Linux and then selling the machine. Many people could use a machine that costs less than say, $200, but is still very functional for everyday usage.

    I would agree with with many of the issues you have experienced here. Nothing personal, but I am kinda glad, I thought I was going crazy and was the only one having these issues.

    Totally agree on the shutdown, etc.

    Biggest thing that is broken for me is simple window management. If I have two apps on a desktop, clicking on the the bottom one doesn’t raise it to the top. If I open a context menu (for example, right clicking on a link in the browser) the menu opens UNDER the browser.

    On my machine, 6 is not ready for prime time. And I have no idea how to categorize things to try and report the bugs. Could be Wayland issues, but I can’t figure out how to start a Plasma 6 session in X11 to see if the problems go away. Maybe my window issues are a result of using Activities (which apparently no one else does) but I don’t want to shut all that down.

    I’ve decided to (re-)install Kubuntu to go back to 5.27 and hopefully come back when 6 is actually ready.
