Plasma is amazing and the thing that mostly bugs out on all my systems is SDDM by far, so this is totally the right choice.

I don’t know much about login managers, but I do know that SDDM has been a pain in my ass on more than one occasion and on more than one distro.

On old Plasma versions (Debian) the Lock Screen manager would crash pretty much every week until I upgraded to the latest release.- ReversalHatchery@beehaw.orgEnglish1 year
that role is usually not held by SDDM, though. I think that’s handled by plasma or kwin, but not exactly sure about that part

This is great to hear. Something I love about GNOME was the login / lock experience.
SDDM felt like shit when used with Unity, and with Pantheon, and with Plasma.
Looking forward to its release.
Nope, that’s the problem with SDDM - it is “meant to be desktop-agnostic”.
There are only two reasons to use something other than xscreensaver:
- You need other input methods
- You don’t care about security
