Because the software center is empty and I see no terminal anywhere.
And alt-f2 doesn't work either.
Any tips?

when I do alt-f2 you can click on "get Xfe terminal
then discover says "couldn't open appstream://xfce4-terminal.desktop"

For the rest it looks and works fabulous. Lot better than the posh I tried before.
I have Terminal under Menu/Applications/System/.

Ctl-Alt-F3 through F6 gets me a virtual terminal (in portrait mode)
Ctl-Alt-F2 goes back to the GUI.
Ctl-Alt-F1 is active but stuck at a 'splash' screen.

I have not done the latest update due to the above post.  Waiting for more responses/solutions.

Everything else is pretty good.   Cool
Thanks! 
I got it fixed by dropping out of plasma using
cnt-alt-shift-del

then installed konsole and packagekit-qt5 using Pac-Man
sudo pacman -S konsole packagekit-qt5 

but your solution is a lot better. 


Also, I just installed from scratch and all works well, no glitches. Got the latest image of course and so on
Now using 
discover 5.20.3 
kde frameworks 5.75.0
qt 5.15.1
