We are looking for a new set of Community KDE Goals to work on.
What should KDE focus on over the next two years? Are you ready to share your vision, time and stamina to push KDE to the next level?
Let's evolve KDE together! Find out more here: https://blog.lydiapintscher.de/2024/06/05/what-should-kde-focus-on-for-the-next-2-years-you-can-propose-a-goal/
Unifying a few codebases, and make Plasma more modular.
1. A minimal Plasma
I think Plasma is the best desktop and suited for minimal installs on machines with like 2GB of RAM. Reducing the needed dependencies (currently working on that in Fedora) to the bare minimum. Making all the fancy desktop effects, animations, blur, transparency, floating, ... optional.
And yes, please also remove the default plasmoids from the needed install. Maybe keep the ones default in the panel. Maybe add a way to find them as "official plasmoids" which would help a lot.
2. Merge parallel works
Gwenview, Spectacle, Kolourpaint, digiKam all have image editing bars. The one of spectacle is pretty good, Gwenview and digiKam could be merged, Kolourpaint could maybe get an additional few things specific to the app.
Oh this is such a good idea. I think an approach analogous to
ktexteditor(or the embedded konsole terminal in apps like dolphin and kile, too) would be amazing. Having the same editing expertise across Kate, kwrite, kile and other text editing apps is fantastic.I just want to know why my calculator is dependent on a webcomic reader...
True, the default plasmoids being critical dependencies is insane.
Please make these plasmoids optional.
There are some where other plasmoids use their code, like the weather applet. But apart from that, a comic reader??
