Which question was not answered?
Also, not to be harsh, but your comment is borderline violating KDE’s CoC. if the volunteers working for free helping out other people do not know the answer to your question, there is not much anybody can do about that 🤷. It does not mean other questions will not be answered.
If you don’t get the answer you are looking for here, get yourself to our Discuss forum. Devs hang out there often and they may be able to help you.
Yes. If the cursor is sluggish, there is something wrong. Get yourself to https://discuss.kde.org/ and ask there.
In many cases the default is chosen because the people placing the order don’t know any better. An educated staff can help them make better choices.
In the banner? It is the symbol for Plasma, KDE’s desktop environment.
Wrong thread?
There are KDE dragons of many colours.
Folks! Let’s all stop trying! This random person on the Internet says it’s not worth it.
What are you talking about. We spend zero effort on AI.
There is not a naming scheme. Projects can call their apps whatever they want.
We’re on it. We have to remove some stuff (namely x/Twitter) and a add a bunch of new stuff. Thanks for the reminder though.
Edit: W e would like to apologise and thank you for your patience in stuff like this. We are understaffed in the promotion and communication department (besides, modifying public websites can only be carried out by people with the proper permissions for logical reasons), and we often have to put off stuff that is not a top priority. We are currently working on making sure the fundraiser stays on track and the announcement for KDE Gear coming out next week.
Again, thank you for your patience.
If you donate €50 or more to our fundraiser, you get to put your name down as “adopting” (i.e. supporting) an app you can choose from the list on the fundraiser landing page. Your name (or nickname, or social media handle, or whatever you choose) will stay on the app’s apps.kde.org until KDE Gear 25.04 is released in April next year.
kde is not in a great place financially
To be fair, KDE will probably never be in a great place financially, as it is a truly “by the people, for the people” kind of project. Not having big backers that may want to influence its directions is by design. That comes at a cost.
Yes. Send me a DM with the name you used to donate so we can locate the donation, and the name you would like us to use to credit you and we will get it done.
This thread rocks. You folks are getting into recycling hardware deep. This is so encouraging. Keep you advice and experiences coming.
It shows up on the Planet. Does that help?
