What would you ask our KDE goal champions?

"Can I create a KDE app in [insert favorite programming language here]?", "Will you support my [insert exotic input device here]?", "Can I get a job as a KDE contributor?"...

Let us know in the comments what you want to ask our champions and we will make sure your question gets answered.

We have archived the Dot -- because we have something better now

The Dot has served the KDE Community well as a the source of news for all our projects and contributors.

But, as KDE has grown, the amount of news has grown with us, to the point it has become impractical to filter it all through one source.

Check out our solution:

That would be one of KDE Connects' main functions, yes. It makes sharing any kind of file (photos, videos, whatever) easy.

You can also share the content of your clipboard from your desktop to your phone and vice versa. So you would copy, say, a web address on your desktop, and you would be able to paste it into your web browser on your phone immediately.

Note that due to unforeseen circumstances, we have been unable to ship the new wallpaper, "Reef", with this version of Plasma. However, a new wallpaper will be coming soon in the next 6.2 version of Plasma.

If you can't wait, you can download "Reef" from here:

Apple had to learn the hard way: Under the DMA (thanks @EUCommission !) they were forced to give users a choice regarding the default search engine and browser on their systems.

What are we going to do about Microsoft misleading users?

@rochacbruno @kde@lemmy.kde.social It's the same. Money goes either way to us with more or less the same cut by the payment provider, so it depends on which payment method you prefer.
