Plasma 6.6 is here (duh!), we fixed those widgets the new release broke ๐ฌ, we made the close buttons on the "Thumbnails" task switcher more legible, and the โTerminate this frozen windowโ dialog got a spinner, among many more tasty things.

SIx different desktop Linux Mastodon clients? OK, let's see:
- Tokodon. This is currently broken on my machine, and from a quick search I see I am not alone.
- Tusky. For Android. Not for actual (for real) Linux. For Android.
- Hummingbird. I think I'm going to actually try this one out.
- The default web client with a bunch of browser extensions. Okay. Maybe they'll fix the web client. I'll try this.
- Toot! I tried it a while ago and it was kind of unusable IIRC. I'll give it another shot.
- Fedilab. Android. Not real Linux; Android. And IIRC that one didn't work for me on Android, either. Incredibly slow load times for home, federated, etc. feeds (like... 5-30 minutes; even slower than the default web client or elk.zone)Web clients with PWA. I'm not seeing any PWA options for infosec.exchange (and I like my instance, but maybe I need to look closer.Right now it looks like... Hummingbird and maybe Toot!
Noting that elk.zone isn't listed. It's my daily driver though after a little while (as hinted above) load times become ridiculous (1 minute to indefinite/frozen). The default web client is the same. I'll try extensions and searching more to see if PWA is an option.
