When clicking on the digital clock applet and the calendar pops up, the month grid shows each day in a square by day of the month (i.e. a calendar!) When clicking on one of those squares, it'll be highlighted (selected). But then there's no way to deselect. So when time passes and the next day comes, the selected day will still be there (until logging out, or the month passes) It can be a bit confusing, as the selected day is in blue, and the actual day is in grey (and every time my eye goes to the blue square and ignores the grey one, I don't even notice it sometimes) In the attached image note how the date is 18/3, while 17/3 is highlighted. I didn't select it on purpose, it was selected (by accident probably) the previous day. The highlight didn't go away after midnight, nor obviously when I close the popup Reproducible: Always

Thanks for the report This certainly was possible, but must have gotten broken.
Also, what's up with the font size there :0
I think that's partly an illusion because the top margin (which is the same as the bottom) is covered by the blue stripe and you can't see the edge of the panel, so it looks a bit off. Nevertheless seems a bit too big overall. The different font sizes should be fixed now.
If you mean the font of the clock, I'm not bothered by it. I've gotten used to it, and I don't think it's very big However, I do miss the ability to edit time/date formats like in KDE4, which was lost after moving to Qt5. I'm more bothered by the movement of the systray when the hour turns to double digits (e.g. 9:59 -> 10:00), which I used to set in time settings to be always double digits (09:59 -> 10:00).

[calendar] Fix calendar applet not clearing selection when hiding This removes some old cruft that is not really used and serves basically only as a bool property for checking if it's null and wheter it equals the last activated date. This can be done without it by simply resetting the current selected date (another property) to "today".

I've updated to v5.6.2-1 from the Arch repos, and the issue is still present. There's a button, but clicking it doesn't take the selection back to today, neither does closing (hiding) the applet. Clicking the "today" button actually just takes me back to the current month if I flip to another one
You need to update plasma-framework to 5.21.
I didn't realize that, sorry. I'm waiting for plasma-frameworks 5.21 to be pushed to testing then stable in the next days in the Arch repos
