    Yes, but it is the cause for having issues jumping between networks and never having proper IPv6 support.

    What issues are you having? I have no issues with switching between networks and using IPv6 on Fedora KDE.

    The only thing I ever noticed was that its stubborn with releasing its DHCP IP addresses and there is no refresh button in KDE. Disabling and enabling again usually solves that, although not sure if that is on NetworkManager or dhclient.

    Everything is “out of scope” with GNOME these days it seems.

    It is, that’s why it is not a suitable DE for people that need more than the basics. I wish they were better with adding advanced features but they are not and probably never will be.

    KDE might not be as pretty and flashy but it is pretty extensive when it comes to settings and fast with implementing new features.

      I’ve IPv6 routes that say around after leaving a network and it takes more than it should to switch between VLANs. Wired 802.1X seems to be a pain sometimes as well, no ideia why but it says everything is connected and I get an IP however can’t ping anything until I restart the connection.

      Yeah, we lack a middle ground DE that actually is properly designed and has the advanced features. I don’t get the GNOME team, having features doesn’t hurt their vision as long as you design things properly - something that they can do. Most of the time it sounds like they simply don’t want to implement things so they hide behind excuses.
