Welcome to a new issue of This Week in Plasma! This week we closed the door on features for Plasma 6.6, which opened another one for those features to land in 6.7. As a result, several features were merged for Plasma 6.7, including some particularly juicy ones!

    Global push-to-talk is going to be wild for meetings. In the gazillion years when my work laptop finally ships an up-to-date version of Plasma, that is. Still on 5.27. 🫠

      I have already (kind of) implemented this by programming a shortcut into my keyboard, and it was working ok until this week, that I found some “ai asisted” conference apps mute you in-app when they detect your mic being muted for some time, and do not un-mute you afterwards

      I hope this push to talk feature solves that

          Not 0, but maybe 1% could work. However, my mic is an external one, when muted/unmuted an status led serves as a visual queue, which is quite helpful. Tinkering with %volume would disable this
