ghossty is deafult terminal set
It's not really the Konsole icon, strictly speaking, it's your icon theme's "utilities-terminal" icon. Konsole uses the same icon though. In principle this is correct, as the action is not "Open Konsole" or "Open Xterm" or whatever, but a generic "Open Terminal" similar to e.g. in Kate. We should probably use the symbolic version to make this clearer. (In reply to cwo from comment #2) > We should probably use the symbolic version to make this clearer. Yeah, this would be great A possibly relevant merge request was started @ https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-workspace/-/merge_requests/5625 Git commit 09ac9b494bf329d72df9164653eb28ee24345998 by Nate Graham. Committed on 22/08/2025 at 04:27. Pushed by ngraham into branch 'master'. Use symbolic terminal icon in desktop context menu The colorful version looks like Konsole, which can confuse people whose default terminal application isn't Konsole.
