The release includes VRAM usage optimizations, dwell clicker support on Wayland, Wayland commit-timing protocol support for KWin, multi-GPU and multi-monitor improvements, server-side drop shadow support, a new kscreenctl tool, and better remote desktop handling. KDE also released a free documentary on YouTube chronicling the project's history as an open-source alternative to proprietary desktops.
