KDE is already recovering from the great party that was Mega-Release of 6. Normality has not yet arrived, since the applications will come out of time in the coming months, but it is almost there. In a future for which there is currently no scheduled date, they will launch two versions of Plasma a year, and that will be the new normal until further notice. But right now they are still fixing bugs and introducing new features, as always.
Among this week's new features there are several that will make Dolphin improve as a file manager. In fact, the article published a few hours ago is called "Dolphin leveling up", which refers to the fact that there are several points with him as the protagonist. You will see it in the next one News list (a little cropped because it does not include the plasma 6.0.2 released this week).
