("Probable settings" is meaningless in this context. "Relevant" describes it better. Removed the first two because those are *descriptions* of the app as a whole rather than specific functionality it provides. Since "Search function helps narrow down probable settings" exists, that means that functionality of the Settings application itself is listed, meaning that it would be strange to omit https://invent.kde.org/plasma/systemsettings/-/commit/87c21c2571ee7c0a3068bf566ab2736dcb0ac9d8.) |
