    This is the best summary I could come up with:

    The openSUSE Tumbleweed rolling release Linux distribution has begun rolling out the KDE Plasma 6.0.1, Gear 24.02 apps, and Frameworks 6.0 packages.

    Plasma 5 is being replaced within the Tumbleweed repository but openSUSE Tumbleweed isn’t yet transitioning to the Wayland session by default.

    Plasma 6 on openSUSE Tumbleweed has been fairing well in developer testing and uncovered bugs are being fixed for forthcoming KDE Plasma 6.0 point releases.

    openSUSE developer Fabian Vogt who has been coordinating the Plasma 6 landing in Tumbleweed noted that the KDE Wayland session isn’t the default yet.

    Plasma on Tumbleweed will switch to Wayland as a later time to help differentiate Wayland-specific bugs versus general Plasma 6 issues.

    More details on the Plasma 6 transition for openSUSE Tumbleweed via the openSUSE Factory mailing list.
