Previously in Windows, you needed to click the volume icon (speaker) in the corner of the screen and then manually adjust the system volume.

Slightly faster than the old way!

This new addition to Windows has also received a rather humorous response from the KDE community, as can be seen in a tweet by engineer Jen Gentleman.
