To a "newbie", what does this mean? I transitioned to Linux full time less than a year ago and settled with KDE. Will this affect me in any way?
-
Just a bigger update, should be fine. AFAIK they did not do any major overhaul from a regular user's perspective, but there are some pretty big changes under the hood. If you use a distro with regular releases, this will probably be included in the next one.

Yeah that's what I thought, thanks for the answer!
-
There where some changes though, different Dolphin icons, different and way better Panel changing, and more
-
Right, but that's nothing compared to Gnome 2->3 or KDE 3->4.
-
Or Gnome 4.0 to 41! xD
-
The decision to adopt Chromium style versions was an interesting one for sure..

I mean some programs use 3.0 as stable, some have 3.15 or something as stable and 3.0 as alpha. They do what they do I guess

If you are on Opensuse Leap, Debian or probably also Kubuntu (Ubuntu LTS), no it wont affect you.
Stable = unchanging bugs, not working packages.
On Kubuntu you may get it with "Kubuntu backports" but really just no.
If you are on Fedora KDE then you will have Plasma 6 in a few months! The same probably for Opensuse Tumbleweed, Arch, etc.
