Developers do not look for reports on social media, so they will not see it and all it does is clutter up the feed.

@kde 🧵(2/?)
Or what if Heinz starts making their own fast-food chain and only supplies their condiments to said chain?
This is a bad idea *because* it is reversing the supply-chain, redirecting efforts that should be focused on the KDE ecosystem (the tip of the iceberg) and moves it to the bottom. Away from what matters.
It WILL eventually lead to KDE isolation, a foundation fragmentation and frivolous forking.
It is that kind of an idea everyone thinks is either great, comical or satirical

- until it's in your face and all of a sudden you realize that you perhaps should have voted differently, as all of a sudden everyone is deporting you, GNOME is taking over and you sit in your little corner cowering in fear.
And no, I'm not talking about a farmer in the US voting for Trump - but there clearly is an analogy.
Wake up and smell the reality. The reality is - you asked the wrong question. It never was "can we do it" or "do we want to do it".
@kde 🧵(4/4)
Leave others to what they do best. Focus your efforts on what matters - there is still a whole lot to do in KDE to make it the best there is. A massive amount of issues to work out in the UI/UX so that drawing in new users doesn't have to be a long walk on broken glass.
And the project manager that thought this would be a good idea? Reassign him to making Kcalc better.
