seen gnome has never changed
that "too many GUI configuration options only confuse the dumb user"
mentality... OTOH, I'm very glad gnome's there an option for those who
do have that mentality, because it helps to keep them away from
needlessly crippling kde/plasma's c
nd to change the properties of a pinned item was to
unpin it and start over with a re-add (which you mentioned did work), tho
it's possible that's a bug. But it seems to be affecting both you on
5.22 and me on live-git-reporting-5.23.80, so...
Again, of course the manual text-editor
rameworks5 stuff uses.

d be where the
system-level autostart stuff, klipper, etc, is already stored), or
/etc/xdg/autostart-scripts (not sure if this works but it mirrors the
user location), or /usr/share/plasma/autostart or autostart-scripts (may
or may not work, /etc/xdg/* is more likely).
Of course it should also be possible, if necessary, to hack the startkde
script or the like, if necessary, but that's messing with something
shipped by kde via your distro, so changes there may be overwritten by
updates and it's probably not a good idea to go changing that except as a
last resort.

ever you do whatever task it

it, or it could be started along with X or plasma using one of several

something rather more dependable on wayland.
I honestly haven't a clue which of the two ways it'll go, but I'm
obviously worried and thinking about it...

I did say this method's a bit technical, so I'll assume if you are going
to use it you already have some familiarity with strace and grep so I
don't have to give you the specifics, but I do use this myself from time
to time, and it does work. =:^)

so that's the term I've pretty much settled on even for the kde/plasma
context.
At least kde/plasma seems to do better at this than gnome, with their
impossibly generic "Files" and similar apps...
So anyway, my general rule has become to mention both terms at least o
he kde store (or other source), presumably developed with the
express purpose of allowing krunner search plugins to be used in whatever
plasma-shell search plasmoid. And of course, users installing it would
be taking on the additional risk of having both launcher functionalities
go down at once,

*DM for plasma is SDDM, the
"Simple Desktop Display Manager". FWIW I believe that's what KDE Neon
runs as well, tho I'm a gentooer and haven't personally tried neon either.

ironment, but
the one I find simplest here as I already have the tool installed for
other reasons, is htop, a much more powerful and thus useful version of
top, using htop's "e" hotkey to list the selected application's
environment.)
