  • I think you are not understanding your system in general. Users can have different settings than the system. As you said, your system was setup wrong… Which sets every user wrong. Now you fixed (it seems) your user, but not the system. On Plasma’s settings, you can go to SDDM settings and tell it to adopt your user’s configuration. This should setup language, keyboard, and everything as your user has.



  • Entities I strongly recommend naming them like this:

    {location}_{type}
    

    For example

    main_bedroom_temperature
    

    This way if you change devices, you can swap entity names and everything works. Also YAML code is much easier to read and write.

    Devices? That’s more difficult to name, but also way less important, IMO. Usually I try to follow the same scheme as for entities, but sometimes I just prefer something else, like the actual brand, date of install…








  • I’m not saying that Mint is bad. But with Kubuntu or Fedora KDE you get more overall support, and KDE software is much more used, developed, tested and supported than Mint’s self-mantained things.

    There is a much higher chance of KDE thriving in the next 10 years than Mint.

    This is my opinion, of course. And based mostly on my subjective observations.
