Is there a way to disable activities support, and does it have an API we could use to conditionally hide the option in Folder?</p></pre>

<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">The only component that is always guaranteed to work without activities is kwin, because it needs to work with other environments beside Plasma.</p>
<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">From my point of view, if a distribution wants something like that, they need to be prepared to maintain their own patches which I don't think is very manageable in the long-run.</p>

<li style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: normal;">interestingly enough, there still is a hidden checkbox in the activities kcm for disabling the system, but it was voted out as soon as I created it. It has absolutely no effect now.</li>
