How would I go about replacing SDDM with the new Plasma Login Manager? I’ve upgraded from F43 to F44, but only fresh installations get it by default.

I have these commands in my notes that I have been using.

sudo dnf install plasma-login-manager
sudo systemctl disable sddm && sudo systemctl enable plasmalogin
reboot
sudo dnf remove sddm sddm-kcm

The only difference from the Change is that I also remove sddm-kcm.

After you reboot you can go into Plasma Settings to configure the appearace of the login screen. I switch to my preferred wallpaper.
