SUMMARY
"Activities" documentation is not clear about the function of Activities and does not describe them fully. The current documentation does not make clear that: 1) Activities can contain multiple desktops and can therefore be thought of as *sets* of Desktops, and 2) "Activities" allow Plasma to be used across different "modes" of use - e.g., personal, business, etc, and to assign different pinned taskbar programs, widgets, and unique wallpapers to each. This is very useful; I suggest simpler language to elaborate and clarify the utility of this unique Plasma function.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Documentation is here: https://docs.kde.org/stable5/en/plasma-desktop/plasma-desktop/activities-interface.html
I would be happy to contribute sample text if helpful.

That would be great. The source is here, btw:

or leave the text, and I will create a pull request.
