From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I'm guessing you haven't switched to Plasma 6 yet? I had that clock widget and loved it, but now it doesn't work..
I haven't, Fedora will only get Plasma 6 on April. :c
What happened to the clock widget?? I really like it and don't want to lose it...
It hasn't been ported over to Plasma 6, any widgets that were on 5 need to be updated to work, unfortunately. So if there are any widgets that have been abandoned, that's it for them. No clue if Clear Clock has been abandoned, but it hasn't been touched since release, so that's concerning.
Crud, I had no idea. I thought they'd still work on 6 :c
So did I, so imagine my dismay when I updated Arch to find my entire desktop plastered with error messages lol..
Luckily every day there's more widgets being added, but I'm still missing a couple. If you keep an eye on the Plasma Extensions page, you can see what's currently available.
