KDE devs have been quietly working on Plasma Keyboard, a new on-screen keyboard for desktop and mobile part of the “We Care About Your Input” KDE Goals initiative. Although not ready for texting yet, it has been making progress. Hopefully it'll be in a screen near you soon. Join the effort!

I saw this! Been using this on my laptop, a Latitude 2-in-1, testing over the one I was using before. So far so good! Nice to see them working on their own, not just having the API for it. Having to dig around to figure out how to install one for it sucked.

Good to know, a fully working + visually ok on screen keyboard is one of the few things I actually miss after my switch from windows. Most I've tried have issues, and even my current "best" xvkbd has some issues (plus it's ugly).
