and if IIRC widgets and plasmoids work differently now.

So basically what KDE has done with Plasma 6 onwards. Wayland is standard, but you can still use X11 if required.
An understandable decision. At some point you have to start switching to Wayland.
Have you already checked whether xwayland is still installed? And have you tried to start the program using QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb your_program?
In the meantime, I have installed the update to Plasma 6.0.1 on my notebook. There were no problems and so far everything is working as it should.
On Arch Linux, Plasma 6.0.1 was released a few minutes ago in the testing package sources.
~~I am curious if this version will reach the official repositories or if there are still reasons to delay an official release.~~
Edit: That went faster than expected. Plasma 6.0.1 has been moved from Testing to Extra.
Earlier, the link to the changelog at https://kde.org/announcements/plasma/6/6.0.1/ did not work, but the one I used did. In the meantime, the link at https://kde.org/announcements/plasma/6/6.0.1/ works and the one I used does not. I assume that someone from KDE has adjusted the link in the meantime.
I have updated the link accordingly.
Here are the things I’ve gathered are non-cosmetic:
Based on https://kde.org/de/announcements/megarelease/6/, I think that many more things are not just purely cosmetic changes.
I must be missing something.
I would say you simply have the wrong expectation that with a so-called mega release a lot of big changes have to happen that the user has to notice immediately. However, many of the changes in Plasma 6 are probably not huge. But many smaller changes are also many changes.
And as others have already written, the changeover to QT 6 was probably not an easy task.
I also see Plasma 6.0 as a basis for things that are planned in Plasma 6.1 or later versions, for example, and are therefore not yet visible to the user. Articles on the development of Plasma are regularly published at https://pointieststick.com, which provide a more detailed insight into the development process.
As always, such statistics should be treated with caution.
What methodology is used to calculate Statcounter Global Stats?
Statcounter is a web analytics service. Our tracking code is installed on more than 1.5 million sites globally.
It is assumed that there are more than one billion websites worldwide. It is therefore not exactly unlikely that a Linux user will not access any of these 1.5 million websites.
Furthermore, it is quite common for Linux users to use tools such as Pi-Hole that simply block such statistics scripts. This means that these users would not be counted even if they accessed one of these 1.5 million websites. For my part, I also use computers with Linux that I don't use to access websites. Some of these computers don't even have access to the Internet. They are therefore not counted either.
Finally, let's come to the most important point. Percentage values say not much if you don't know the actual number of users behind them. Let's assume, for example, that 3.5 per cent Linux users were detected in December and only 3 per cent in January. However, if the total number of users was higher in January, it is therefore possible that more users were detected in January.
Having automatic updates as opt-in by default would be better to avoid supply chain attacks.
I guess the majority of users would prefer automatic data synchronization. The tool therefore offers the option of deactivating automatic synchronization (https://docs.atuin.sh/configuration/config/).
Also, if the original history file is still there it would be a good feature to be able to diff between the sqlite and the history file to see if commands have been deleted.
A solution can probably be created with https://docs.atuin.sh/reference/list/ in conjunction with a shell script.
Are there options to choose what encryption algo is used?
I suspect that this is not possible. Why do you want to change the type of encryption?
Based on https://docs.atuin.sh/configuration/config/#search_mode, "fuzzy search" is used as standard.
I have no experience with this project. I have been using a mouse from Zowie for several years under Linux, where all settings can be made with switches on the mouse so that no software is necessary.
