We have more apps for you to adopt!: Kasts, Labplot, Filelight and Konsole
https://kde.org/fundraisers/yearend2024/
You can adopt Kasts, a very cool and full-featured podcast application which works both on your desktop and your phone:
KDE is an international technology team creating user-friendly free and open source software for desktop and portable computing. KDE’s software runs on GNU/Linux, BSD and other operating systems, including Windows.
If you encounter a bug, proceed to https://bugs.kde.org, check whether it has been reported.
If it hasn't, report it yourself.
PLEASE THINK CAREFULLY BEFORE POSTING HERE.
Developers do not look for reports on social media, so they will not see it and all it does is clutter up the feed.

You could also sponsor Filelight, a utility that allows you to visually monitor usage of the storage on your computer:

Or choose Konsole! KDE's classic terminal emulator that has dozens of tricks up its sleeve that make working on the command line easy, fun and productive:

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social love it
Why should I use Konsole instead of another terminal Emulator?
As in what are the differences? Or what does Konsole do better or different?
The video linked above answers a some of those questions. It is only 40 seconds long.
@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social I love Konsole and all its features but the missing GPU acceleration is a blocker for me 😢 https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=411579
@phasslr @kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social Is text rendering too slow though? I don't notice any difference between Konsole and Wezterm, which uses OpenGL, and I use neovim with tons of bells and whistles.
Maybe running a terminal benchmark would give us some data to discuss. I did it some time ago, but I can't find the results right now (I'm on a plane).
@codewiz @kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social I exclusively used Konsole for several months but after trying out Kitty I wasn't able to go back anymore. It is noticeable for me in neovim but really hard to pin down what makes it 'feel better'. Any suggestions for real-life-like benchmarks?
@phasslr @kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social Found my benchmark results, but I didn't test Kitty:

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social Filelight is soo useful! <3
@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social this app genuinely saved me from bricking my computer
@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social its useful, but it feels much worse than it was before...looks like so many useless operations, no caching, and actually less readable graph
@nictakiego @kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social
Are you talking about filelight?
@soumyadghosh @kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social yes
@nictakiego @kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social What are your objections and suggestions?
May be I can just work on it.... File a bug report?
Can you kindly list them?
@soumyadghosh @kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social I already forgot old filelight and its features, but as I say, that experience was better than this one currently. I will try to find/install old filelight then give you feedback. Aah how unlucky just recently i removed clonezilla image containing it.
@nictakiego @kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social Please feel free to ping me in matrix or anywhere. You can get my socials from my website.
