Current location #14

Automatic detection of the current location would be nice. https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtpositioning-index.html is probably the way to go.

I've already planned such functionality but never got to it. There is even a plasma 'geolocation' engine available in qml to retrieve the location so it shouldn't be difficult to code it. I'll do that eventually. Thanks for pointing it out!

Perhaps an easier solution would be to have the default location be configureable in /etc somewhere. Then the sysadmin can install the applet and configure the systems default location and the users can change it if desired, as opposed to currently every user need to configure the location.

Autodetecting location is easier than editing a text file somewhere.
