A user has had a bad experience installing a global theme on Plasma and lost personal data.
Global themes do not only change the look of Plasma, but also the behavior. To do this they run code, and this code can be faulty, as in the case mentioned above. The same goes for widgets and plasmoids.
We are calling on the community to help us locate and quarantine defective software by using the “Report” buttons available on each item in the KDE Store.
Please see this linked image to locate them.
Nevertheless, this will take time and resources. We recommend all users to be careful when installing and running software not provided directly by KDE or your distros.
And remember to report any faulty products you find!
I thought wayland was supposed to improve security. Were the past 18 years a lie?
I don’t think that this is related to Wayland.

In that case the wayland project should be held accountable for false marketing and deceiving users

Maybe you should ask for your money back…
I wonder how much 18 years of time is worth
Considering this is what you do with your time when given the choice, not much in your case.
Clearly you don’t know the first thing about Wayland. If you run an application without a sandbox, of course it can execute commands. That’s just common sense. Qt themes are also kind of an application. Now that’s where the fault lies, not with the protocol applications use to interact with the compositor (Wayland).
Ignore him. You would think people have something better to do but apparently creating an account just to trashtalk wayland is a thing. I’ve seen it before, probably the same dude.
This is not about Wayland.

I think this is a joke?
I lean center-right myself (and yet somehow continue to use Lemmy) and still marvel at the complete lunacy of conspiracy theories about him that right-wingers can dream up.
