Am I just losing my mind, or did Plasma previously have a section in System Settings where you could selectively disable background services? I'm so happy that someone else remembers that page | 21:31:19 |
| SigmaSquadron | No idea what happened to it; at some point between Plasma 6.1 and 6.2 it just disappeared from my settings. | 21:31:50 |
 FliegendeWurst | try kcmshell6 kcm_kded | 22:27:45 |
| FliegendeWurst | I can also still find the page via the kickoff search | 22:28:35 |
