Is plasma 5.25 up to date on endeavour? There doesn’t seem to be an update for me.

@pebcak Not sure why your is showing such low ram on KDE. Normally im in around the 1500 mb or less or higher. I can’t go by just booting it up and checking. System has to running for a good time and then checking it periodically because ram use changes. Baloo is currently running now. I’m not havi…
