Cannot reproduce. Is the view 100% empty, or does it have *something* in it? Can you attach a screenshot of it?

Comment 3 Nate Graham 2023-03-02 15:32:13 UTC 
Thanks. Does it by any chance fix itself if you mouse over to another category and then back to Favorites?
Comment 4 Patrick Silva 2023-03-02 15:36:09 UTC 
No. The Favorites list remains empty.
Comment 5 Nate Graham 2023-03-02 16:49:19 UTC 
How strange. :/ I can't reproduce it with a new user account and git master from a few days ago, before the port to Qt 6 started.

is it empty in Kicker too? That would indicate an issue in the activities database.

Kickoff with default favorites

Kicker is not affected. After switching back to Kickoff, the bug is no longer reproducible.

:/
Comment 8 Patrick Silva 2023-11-18 20:57:56 UTC 
Tested on Arch Linux running Plasma alpha 6 and neon unstable; cannot reproduce.
