    The year of the Linux desktop will happen when plasma has wallpapers span across two monitors. 😂 Thank you, Nate and the whole team for the amazing work. This desktop is getting better and better by the day.

      I just use Kritas Image Split feature. But it would be nice to download a widescreen picture and just set it as a background for all monitors. We need to wait until someone will implement that feature.

        Welp, I didn’t know about Krita splitting pics, now I’m going to use it. And there IS an app called superpaper that works, but very funky and works half ass on Wayland. Like the system tray icon doesn’t show and the app can’t be launched, but it does cycle between wallpapers in the background. Also, if I knew how, I’d make the feature work on KDE. I can’t code in C++ to save my life.

        I honestly don’t want to say “right?” Because I know many of the folks who work on it are volunteers who don’t have to do this shit, so I’ll just wait for it. I wish I knew how to do it myself. Gnome has it. Windows switches to spanning automatically when it detects the dimensions of the wallpaper, I’m just wondering why a massive de like KDE doesn’t have it
