    So, leaving the world of cheapshots for a serious question: How's KDE with 4K displays these days?

    Back when all my displays were 1920x1080, I used KDE as my daily driver and also as a product development target, and recommended it to the few people who asked... Then around 2014 I got a 4K laptop and I really couldn't deal with all the micro-fonts that showed up by default in Kubuntu 14.04... sure, it was fixable, everything is fixable, I just don't have the patience when other solutions work better out of the box.
