"them" is "one and half people" (per their "about"). Give them some time... Or, you know, pitch in.

access and review

and censor and re-use and use to train their AI... Basically they own your art.

Edit: That said, most predictable scummy move of Adobe's long history of scummy moves.

Then you got banned with no right to appeal, just like everywhere else

Damn right

Two of these are not KDE issues. The themes you are using don't work because the authors didn't port them, like we asked third party developers do... twice. Same goes for the calendar widget you are using. Go bug em, champ.

KDE cannot be held responsible for third party add-ons, but, for everything else: https://bugs.kde.org

I know we are kind of boring with this, but...

This sounds like the perfect junior job anyone can do, with or without technical knowledge and zero need for coding, but that would, at the same time, substantially improve users' experience.

KDE is a Community with fuzzy edges, not a company, not a members-only club. Use the links in the page mentioned above 👆 and explain how you want to help.

Edit: And, yeah, you would very likely get a more positive reaction to what can be boiled down to a valid suggestion if you expressed yourself in slightly politer terms.

Two more that didn't make it over from mastodon:

Gwenview, Dolphin, digiKam, AudioTube, Elisa, NeoChat, GCompris...

The same principles can be applied to jumping from one desktop environment to another, for example, from #Plasma to #Gnome...

... And can provide a way to save the state of an application to disk, stopping the app in its tracks and removing it from memory, so that later you can restore it just where you left off.

I think that KDE's track record shows that devs do not remove stuff just because. Quite the contrary.

But sometimes stuff does get removed and often it is because or it is unmaintained (and been so for a while), or because it is built on some old technology that cannot be replicated in the new environment without a complete rewrite.

In both cases, the reason a feature is discontinued boils down to a lack of resources.

Fortunately, the solution is simple: do your part.

KDE is a porous, grassroots and welcoming community. Join us and become part of the effort to build one of the largest and most diverse collections of end user, publicly-owned, free software projects in existence.

I know, I know: "but I can't code", etc., etc. But there are many things you can do to help. You can help organise Akademy 2024, you can translate menus and system messages, you can write documentation, draw wallpapers, design icons, edit videos, support booth staff at events, triage and report bugs, or just donate and contribute to financially supporting devs who still have to hold down pesky day jobs that get in the way of coding for KDE... The list goes on and on.

The point is, regardless of your level of technical knowledge, the more resources you free up elsewhere, the more time the people who do know how to code will have to maintain and translate software and features in the new Plasma 6 environment.

Rude, but a teachable moment:

This is our standard answer to people who need reminding that KDE is a community powered by volunteers and that each contributor works for free to bring you the best software they can make with the means they have.
