An open source client that's not based on Electron would be nice. Or move to something else entirely? Are there any other client-server open source password managers?

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ml/post/21301425 > And I’d say it’s a pretty good release! As with all large sets of changes, there are a couple of regressions we’re tracking, particularly around the areas of external monitor brightness and multi-screen performance. They are being actively investigated. Other than those, so far all the issues have been fairly minor, requiring people to jump through various hoops to experience them. We’re still working on fixing them, of course! I’ll be writing up another post soon on these issues, discussing how they snuck into the final release, and what we can learn from the experience. But in the meantime, here’s the Plasma team’s work from this week.

    Interesting. I will give it a look. I am not noticing the same thing so it might have been something transient. Perhaps things needed to sync. This was something I remember from earlier Lemmy releases but I haven't seen it in quite some time. Thanks for letting us know.

    That is correct, it isn't available immediately but a week or so is normal. Upgrades are tested somewhat separately from fresh installs and they get released after the tests pass.

    I questioned the headline too. I sure hope it isn't normal but the second half of that acronym does seem accurate.
