Woohoo Advanced Radio Player is back :crazy_face:

Beside that i am using Netspeed Widget, Compact Pager and Modern Clock. That’s all I need and I’m glad that my favorites are available again.

What are your favorite add-ons. Maybe I would like to use one or the other :wink:

I like aesthetic clock and a weather widget (which is hard to find a working one). Pretty minimalistic here.

Same here. It would be nice if the event calendar came back

I currently use the Plasma on Board weather widget.

Weather widget 2 has become weather widget 3, which is almost on par with its predecessor:

What is still missing is the (better) temp widget:
https://gitlab.com/agurenko/plasma-applet-thermal-monitor is not ported, subpar fork:
https://invent.kde.org/olib/thermalmonitor
And still missing, maintainer is on gentoo and waiting for plasma6:
https://github.com/dwardor/plasma-applet-fanspeed-monitor

Beside that I use the before mentioned netspeed widget, modern clock and the already ported Archupdate

My favourite is Modern clock especially since I’ve figured out how to change the font and colour in it

I really wish Split Digital Clock is ported soon for my vertical panel. Also started using Modern Clock with plasma 6. It’s super cool…

It’s one of my favourites too.

Let me guess. In the config file? If not, tell me :wink:

Been retired I no longer need a clock or calendar, everyday is Saturday and the current time is always 17:00 hours.

With modern clock it’s a couple of files, just out on a walk at the moment but when I get home I’ll share which ones

That seems sensible to me. Everything will be fixed by then

I removed netspeed widget and make use of text only built-in system monitors. The only installed widget is DDC/CI Brightness Control becaus efrom time to time I like to dim/un-dim the main monitor and do not want to fiddle around in the one-knob-controlled-sub-sub-menus of my monitor :wink:

I only got Arch Update Checker installed. I installed it today and I like it.

Why?
It’s pointless…On Arch updates are constantly flowing…you can count on update always be ready multiple times a day.

Not using it myself so I may not be able to answer further question about it, but if you need to be notified about updates, EnOS has its own eos-update-notifier

$ pacman -Si eos-update-notifier 
Repository      : endeavouros
Name            : eos-update-notifier
Version         : 24.1-1
Description     : Software update notifier and 'news for you' for EndeavourOS users.

@swh beat me to it!
