This Week in Plasma: spoooooky ooooooooom notifications!
In this episode: We moved! And we added a useful service to detect out-of-memory (OOM) conditions, did some UI polishing, and also a lot of bug-fixing!
Read all about it here:

How did we see what the oom killer was killing before? Getting a notification is a great change because I had no idea how this was checked
At the very least you can see it in dmesg.
@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social
So, Linuxe can kill programas when it runs out of memory.
Wish it had done like that when it happened here.
@paninodesu @kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social if you have an OOM (out-of-memory) service enabled, yes.
@cyrus @kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social
I had the impression this was something "standard", that already came enabled with the system.
@paninodesu @kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social that's for your OS/Distro to decide, whether they want to include that or not I mean
Plasma just added support for displaying that such an event took place
@kde Love seeing y'all's updates on KDE! I went from being meh to a complete fan with Plasma 5 and 6; always feels like y'all are actually engaged in what people are looking for in making something familiar yet entirely unique and its own. Thank y'all for the dedication! <3
