KDE Linux/Obstsalat

This is the Obstsalat (fruit salad 🍇🍈🍉🍊...). They are facets of the 🍌 experience. The OS is just part of the story.

• plasma wayland experience ( remote desktop story. easy sharing. convertible story)
  • remote desktop by token or by ace
  • nearby sharing: via kdeconnect?
  • should sharing and remote desktop be the same thing from a UX perspective?
  • session restore. rebooting needs to be a breeze because users restart a lot for updates
  • detect when kwin is no longer responsive due to load and offer a way out of it
  • detect when memory is being hogged and offer a way out of it (notification "yo this is using lots of ram, how about we kill it")
  • backups: dolphin integration to roll back files
  • dolphin integration shebang for google and office365 and nextcloud --- ensure we have companies in the KDE surrounding that can make sure these things are well maintained (i.e. foster a healthy eco system of KDE adjacent companies)
  • make people see that their software product is of crucial importance and must be well maintained (bug triage, forum support, MR commenting)
  • input methods installed. fcitx, ibus, maliit, qvk

• atomic os
  • binary diff sysupdates need creating -- zsync?
  • encryption: verity subvolume on btrfs?? figure out a good story that requires a single auth even with encryption
  • developer story using sysext needs figuring out and documenting
  • switching editions via updates kcm and maybe the sources list in discover

• adoption story
  • windows and osx story needs polishing
  • make sure isoimagewriter is a nice tool to use
  • explore having branded usb sticks to deliver to community members and in conferences
  • talk to hardware vendors

• sandbox:
  • plasmoids: see to how to list them and spawn the process. Integrate it into the UI
  • apps: flatpak and snap
  • KIO: needs thinking. make a daemon let it spawn workers
  • anything else: sysext / toolbox for now, should minimize the rest

• recoverability // never dead
  • a/b guards against some breakage
  • recovery mode for breakage outside a/b
  • recover user data mounts all stuff

• security
  • CVE/security updates: there is an atom feed of fixes
  • firewall?
  • anti virus?
  • compliance certification https://www.bsi.bund.de/EN/Das-BSI/Auftrag/Gesetze-und-Verordungen/gesetze-und-verordungen_node.html

• developer experience
• centralized management story to keep in mind // monitoring: hook into systemd
• eco system of companies to provide support -- ticketing system
• apple: no. banana!
• virt-manager flatpak -- maybe write a kirigami kvm client (there is https://invent.kde.org/arraybolt/karton)
• collect some sort of perf data on app start ups and stuff and evaluate that somewhere and somehow
