I have been using kde for 15+ years, except 4.0, which was painful, everything has been mostly a smooth experience.

> However, KDE considered my TV the primary desktop and put the task bar only in that monitor, and even disabling the TV didn't add the task bar to my monitor.

You can order the screens however you want; the first one will be considered primary.

Yes, but I assumed that disabling the TV would set the monitor as the primary desktop and added the taskbar to it, but it didn't. Now I may have done something wrong, but I was just reporting my experience.

It remembers the screens to try to keep your settings if you disconnect and reconnect external screens, but in this case that was not very helpful

I always want the taskbar on every screen personally. I think that'd be a friendlier default, but since it's KDE it's at least not too hard to change, and everything is configurable down to fine details
