KDE is not funded by any EU entity. Some project developers applied for small grants. Some got them, but these are individuals that happen to develop projects within KDE and the funds went to them.

I agree. That said, users coming from proprietary tools may be gracious enough to meet the volunteers building free software at least half way.

There are abrasive people everywhere and everyone has an opinion. In a community without a top-down hierarchical structure, every Tom, Dick and Henrietta thinks they know what's best for the project and will tell you so. Don't take it personally, remember everybody wants what is best, and, if you believe in your proposal, persevere. There is someone who agrees with you.

This is PR bullshit. They have not changed their license one iota from what it was 2 days ago and, ultimately, the license is what goes. They have not corrected course. All they have done is asked users to trust them in a blog post. The problem with that is that blog posts are not legally binding and, in a field full of nasty, predatory and untrustworthy firms, Adobe is one of the nastiest, most predatory and least trustworthy . You do with that what you will.

Even if you lack knowledge regarding development, advice from professional designers and artists is always appreciated. I think it would be helpful if you picked a project with receptive developers and offered them your insight.

Don't take this the wrong way. While I appreciate the tact with which you have expressed your criticisms, but you may find that your objections all boil down to "I am used to a certain set of tools and now I have to change. The new tools do things differently and I am confused and it is messing with my productivity", that is, the problem is not entirely with the new software, but with you, your workflow and your muscle memory.

So or they are backtracking like Slack did a couple of weeks ago and will seek a way to still do this when no-one is looking, or they are obfuscating their true intentions with blah, or they will just keep users in the dark and lie.
If anyone believes Adobe is not going to take their work and still make them pay for an extortionate license, send them my way, as I have a bridge to sell them.

Thanks for your invitation, then I cordially and officially invite you accept the KDE Invent (Gitlab) access which I requested months and months ago.
A developer account, the kind of account that gives contributors full access to GitLab, gives the power to do a lot of damage too. In view of how malware has been injected into FLOSS projects in the past, you will understand why KDE's Invent instance is not an open, free-for-all affaire.
You have to go through a process, wherein one of the steps entails being sponsored by someone who is already a veteran contributor to KDE. This, in turn, entails contributing to KDE for a while, maybe in a non-development role, or by using the open services of invent. If you have not gone through that process, the sysadmin team will ignore your petition.
That said, properly submitted requests for developer accounts are approved all the time.
See here on how to proceed:
https://community.kde.org/Infrastructure/Get_a_Developer_Account
Notwithstanding, when it comes to bugs, which seems to be your main concern, there is a lot you can do without a developer account. Triaging, for example, wherein you confirm that a bug exists, check if it happens everywhere (i.e. across platforms and distros), and figure out what triggers it is an invaluable contribution that will save developers many hours of hunting and testing.
Why not start there? All you need is an account on https://bugs.kde.org and you will also revive bugs that may have flown under the radar and contribute to getting them sorted once and for all. Your help could be key to that.
For now all I could contribute is by donating money (check the records, it’s public).
And that is much appreciated too. Thanks

Bugs are solved all the time. It is not a project for the community because the community already works on correcting bugs all the time. If the correction of bugs is not fast enough for you, we cordially and officially invite you to help out:
https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved
Remember: bugs are corrected by volunteers, many of which also have day jobs and other things going on. We are always understaffed. You can help.

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.kde.social/post/1066727 > Using dices in elementary school to play mathematical games allows to train logic and strategy. Before that, dice patterns need to be learned. "Number with dice" helps pupils in preschool to quickly count the dots present on a dice and offers practice to train dice patterns recognition, preparing children for the elementary school.

[A user has had a bad experience installing a global theme on Plasma](https://www.reddit.com/r/kde/comments/1bixmbx/do_not_install_global_themes_some_wipe_out_all/) and lost personal data. Global themes do not only change the look of Plasma, but also the behavior. To do this they run code, and this code can be faulty, as in the case mentioned above. The same goes for widgets and plasmoids. We are calling on the community to help us locate and quarantine defective software by using the "Report" buttons available on each item in the [KDE Store](https://store.kde.org). Please see this [linked image](https://i.imgur.com/nwegyDj.jpeg) to locate them. Meanwhile, [KDE is taking measures to properly warn users before each download and we are also putting in place ways of auditing and curating what is uploaded to the KDE store](https://blog.davidedmundson.co.uk/blog/kde-store-content/). Nevertheless, this will take time and resources. We recommend all users to be careful when installing and running software not provided directly by KDE or your distros. And remember to report any faulty products you find!
Transitous is a new community-driven routing service. Add your own city and help make it great.
.0 versions can contain bugs not found in the pre-launch versions. [You can help us get them removed by reporting them](https://bugs.kde.org). And look out for updates to Plasma, as they will come with many fixes over the next few weeks! As for the themes and widgets created by third parties, we have already publicly [advised developers to port their stuff](https://lemmy.kde.social/post/862894). We have two pages available to guide them, [one for themes](https://develop.kde.org/docs/plasma/theme/theme-porting-to-plasma6/), [one for widgets](https://develop.kde.org/docs/plasma/widget/porting_kf6/). If you, the user, discover your favourite theme or widget is failing, please look for it in the [KDE Store](https://store.kde.org/browse/) and notify the author, as KDE has no control or leverage over third party developers. Thank you !kde@floss.social
David, Nate, Josh, Marco, Carl, and Niccolò are here ready to answer all your questions on Plasma (all versions), Gear, Frameworks, Wayland (and how it affects KDE's software), and everything in between. Fire away, Lemmy! --- We were expecting to be done in an hour and we have past the 2-hour mark already! Time flies when you are having fun. Thank you for all the questions and the welcoming and friendly atmosphere, but the devs must get back to making Plasma 6 great. Please keep the conversation going and KDE contributors will continue to answer over the next days as time permits. Thank you all!!
