🎶 Happy birthday to yous! 🎂 🎵
That is not how KDE works. KDE is not a company and it doesn't absorb or embrace other projects. If you have a project you would like to develop using the advantages afforded by KDE, you can put it through the incubation process and then, when it passes, work on it yourself. The other KDE contributors that join you (if they join you), do so under their own steam. There is no management telling people where to go or what to work on, so if you stop working on your own project and have been unable to attract other contributors, development will stop.
¿Puedes mostrarnos vuestro proyecto y explicar un poquito cómo lo hacéis?
Well... Bugs don't fix themselves. Maybe someone read your message, although I would advise using https://bugs.kde.org from now on.
Again: we do not use only PayPal. We have implemented many other methods.
i wouldn’t really recommend it since the configs will break a lot from the DEs fighting
Hm. Yeah, you have to be careful with that. There may be configs with coinciding names. You are right. Be careful @ikidd@lemmy.world ! Do your research.
KDE really only has Linux based users
I was only arguing this point. Apologies for not making that clear.
That's okay, though. Donating is purely a voluntary thing. No-one at KDE is into pressuring or guilting anybody into doing anything. You enjoy our software and it helps you study, work or have fun? We are happy and good with that. Have fun!
The number of Windows desktop users outnumber the number of Linux desktop users something like 25 to 1, so that makes a lot of sense.
drivers and software aren’t usually developed for [Linux].
This is not very accurate. Despite having a small user base, kernel developers add hundreds of drivers every new version, and the number of end user programs developed by communities (such as KDE and GNOME) and independent teams, has ballooned in recent years.
There are two ways of getting features into KDE in a speedy fashion :
contributing to our fundraiser, or donating to the project, or whatever. That is, providing the developers with means to get stuff done, either by buying them time so they can spend it on developing, or hiring help. If you are on this thread it is because you are doing this, or considering doing this, or whatever, so we can assume you already know about this.
contributing with your know-how. Check out our get involved page, as it describes in detail how you can help with the implementation the things NeoChat needs.
