Post Syndicated from original https://lwn.net/Articles/834329/rss

Applications that run on the Linux desktop have changed significantly
under the hood in recent years; for example, they use more processes than
before. Desktop environments need to adapt to this change. During Akademy 2020, KDE developers David
Edmundson and Henri Chain delivered a talk (YouTube
video
) about how KDE, working with other desktop environments, is
starting to use advanced kernel features to give users more control over
their systems. This talk complements a presentation by GNOME developers that
was recently covered here.
