Plasma not working, plasmashell not present
I have no idea what I did, but my desktop environment is gone. I could accesst the terminal through Ctrl+Alt+T, and somehow also Brave and Dolphin, but everything else is just a black screen and a mouse cursor. I've been looking for a solution on the web and found nothing that worked
