> What is KDE Plasma exactly?
Good question, and one of the harder ones to answer: Exactly, exactly it is "desktop environment". That is, a graphical environment and a series of graphical utilities that allow you to manage most aspects of your computer, and provides the infrastructure needed by your apps to run.
@Franzia
Plasma allows you to configure how your desktop looks, manage connections to the network, provides graphical connections to your devices (mice, hard disks, printers, etc.), let's you run your programs with ease, and also lets different programs to graphically communicate with each other (via, for example, drag and drop).
