Plasma Mobile updates make the user interface more customizable (and a bit more Android-like) (linuxsmartphones.com)

Being more like android is a mixed bag. it's familiar for me and it makes it easier to understand out of the box, but it also is an outdated ui design to me. I think that being held back by what people thought was good for a smartphone ui over a decade ago isn't the best way to go right now. That said though I think that it might be a smart choice and makes sense for kde, and it doesn't feel out of place considering how much desktop kde is similar to windows.

Yeah, UT is a bit locked down. I would install Lomiri on postmarketOS. Or sxmo when it becomes ready.
