@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social I love how the little ‘plus’ icon now follows the system colours. I was never bothered by it before, but now I can’t unsee it 😩

So, Linuxe can kill programas when it runs out of memory.
Wish it had done like that when it happened here.

How did we see what the oom killer was killing before? Getting a notification is a great change because I had no idea how this was checked

At the very least you can see it in dmesg.
