Valve’s Steam Deck updates to Plasma 6.2.5!
The games console has a slow update cycle to guarantee stability for users, but #Valve announced yesterday that both the #Arch base system and the #Plasma desktop environment are being updated to new preview releases.

I wonder if it’s running some sort of “split release” cycle, where the KDE environment updates are delayed, but kernel and graphics drivers are rolling.
I’d love to know. I’d assume that “split release” would be happening on the steam client itself (when you get an update through the steam settings), because going into desktop mode, you only get flatpaks update (at least as far as I know). You can’t just run
sudo pacman -Syuand get your update.
