KDE Plasma 5.16 Desktop Promises Much-Improved Login, Logout, and Lock Screens

The KDE Plasma 5.16 desktop environment is currently in the works, due for release this summer, and new KDE contributors Filip Fila and Kre??imir ??ohar have been trying to improve the lock and feel of the login, lock, and logout screens to make them look more modern, usable, and beautiful. Their work made the login screen more prettier with a toned-down fader effect for the background so you can clearly see the labels, as well as a new magnification effect for the user icons in focus. On the other hand, the logout screen received improved controls with new subtle transparent background, lighted up text, and reworked or new icons.
