  • I can assure you the reason why I only took one picture was not because the sprint broke me ;)

  • Can’t create a contact in Merkuro Contacts

    Jump

  • Hmm I thought I had fixed this bug. I will investigate.

  • I have made the first actual change in my lightly fork, what do you guys think?

    Jump

  • Looks great 👍

  • Blocked on KDE GitLab?

    Jump

  • The system automatically lock some accounts after a long period of inactivity. Can you send an email to sysadmin@kde.org with your account username?

  • Improvements to QTextDocument

    Jump

  • I wonder why you implemented part of markdown, rather than using QTextDocument’s existing markdown support. Is something that you need missing?

    I'm already using QTextDocument markdown support. Just QTextDocument markdown support doesn't include all the WYSIWYG functionalities.

    Kirigami Addons 1.1.0

    carlschwan.eu /2024/04/01/kirigami-addons-1.1.0/

  • Klevernotes: UI changes, performance improvements and more!

    Jump

  • I plan to move the wysiwyg part to a library (probably Kirigami Addons) so that it can be easily reused by other projects.

  • A post of mine was deleted without note, what is going on?

    Jump

  • If this happens again, feel free to contact me. Discussing bugs is fine here.

  • AUA: We are the Plasma dev team. Ask Us Anything about Plasma 6, gear 24.02, Frameworks 6 and everything else in the upcoming Megarelease.

    Jump

  • For me it's definively the new overview effect, I already use it all the time on my Plasma dev session.

  • Is there a dedicated page tracking updates specifically to KDE Connect?

    It is part of KDE Gear, so generally in the gear release announcement. The last few releases were not that big in term of feature but the next one includes some goodies.

    Does Connect use BTLE?

    KDE Connect will have the Bluetooth backend enabled by default with the next gear release (24.02). I'm not sure if this is BTLE or normal Bluetooth.

    Could you guys implement an auto tethering option between phone/PC?

    No idea :(

    How instant are notifications synced?

    For me it is pretty instant. I never miss my Bereal notifications thanks to it :)

    Do notifications disappear on one side or the other when viewed on one or the other platform?

    Yes

    Maybe implement a “link to KDE” notification toggle to mirror the “link to windows” functionality of Android?

    No idea :(

  • In addition to that Josh said, we have a list of mobile friendly first party applications here: https://plasma-mobile.org/ It's not completely up to date and is missing some newer additions.

  • Why don't you donate (or donate more) to KDE?

    Jump

  • I donate periodically to KDE, but my major gripe is that I don’t know where the money is going. They have no financial reports that can be easily found

    The yearly reports of the KDE e.V. can be found in https://kde.org/community/donations/

    individual projects don’t have a donation button

    this is because giving money individually to a KDE subproject is a lot of logistic and unless the project is big and receive a lot of money, the amount collected for the individual project won't be enough to do anything meaningful for the project. But we had a trial with Kdenlive specific fundraising, which worked reasonably well last year so maybe we will see more subprojects specific fundraising in the future.

    there’s no public tracking of their income or expenditure like on opencollective

    yeah aside from the graphs in https://ev.kde.org/reports/ev-2022/#working-groups_ we don't publish detailed logs of every single transactions as they contain private details like how much our contractors are getting paid. KDE e.V. is a registered non-profit in Germany and the tax offices is very vigilant that nothing weird happens.

    it’s not easy to find KDE devs (aka who is actually on the KDE team) so that one could sponsor individual devs

    This developers accepting donations often have this info on their website. It's also possible to find KDE related people on liberapay https://liberapay.com/search?q=kde

  • This week in KDE: Wayland by default, de-framed Breeze, HDR games, rectangle screen recording

    Jump

  • Yes but not only. Various other components inherit from QFrame and had by default a frame.

  • KDE is 27 years old today 🎂! Happy Birthday to us!

    Jump

  • Happy birthday KDE!

  • Come and visit the KDE stand at the GNU/LinuxDay in Vorarlberg!

    Jump

  • Thanks :) It's always fun to meet users and we always put a bit of an effort to have a clean booth with a lot of hardware running Plasma :)

  • Hi, I have released a program similar to Apple's Quick Look.

    Jump

  • Very cool. Nice work! I wonder how an implementation with KPart/C++ would look like

  • Is there anyone who actually approves sign ups to the kde instance?

    Jump

  • Yes, sorry I was away on a conference for the ladt 3 days and I broke the ui jusr before leaving...
