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

Happy donor to the best, most powerful, most modular, and still efficient and lean desktop on Linux!

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social It would be nice if some corporation became interested in supporting KDE, just like it is with GNOME.

There's actually a European open source initiative that funds them. However, the program is being sunsetted :(

KDE is not funded by any EU entity. Some project developers applied for small grants. Some got them, but these are individuals that happen to develop projects within KDE and the funds went to them.

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social just for next post use #KDE and #KDEGear. Caps matter for accessibility.

@justin @kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social

Interesting. I have wondered about plural vs singular names for hashtags, ie #HashTag vs #HashTags, but I hadn’t considered that capitalization matters, except for readability.

@inaction_figure @kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social it helps screen readers better define where one word stops and another starts.
