I mean, that’s basically how I find the root cause of problems that occur in one environment but not the other.
Most recently was when a plasma desktop of any newly created user wouldn’t shut down properly, at logout it would hang for about a minute with an error in the logs stating that plasma-plasmashell.service was not responding to a sigterm, and was then ultimately force killed by systemd. On my main desktop, I didn’t have this issue.
By meticulously diffing plasma related config files, I found that the culprit was in ~/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc. Disabling a few system tray applets that I didn’t need (and that I indeed had already disabled on my main desktop) fixed the issue.
