What does it mean to "adopt" Okular? Never heard of this before. Also, thank you for supporting our favorite DE.

You can "adopt" one of several KDE apps if you donate 50 usd/eur or more. Your name will be listed on the app's webpage until April 2025. Other than that it's just a donation with a fancy name.

"Adopting" is the term they're using for supporting a specific app in their latest fundraiser. If you donate over a certain amount, you can chose an app and sort of "sponsor" it more directly, instead of being a more generic KDE donation. As far as I understand, though, they only allow 5 adopters per app (KDE Connect was rightfully filled up almost instantly lol). Check their page: https://kde.org/fundraisers/yearend2024/
