Help us reach our Supporting Members goal 🥅!

We want to sign up 500 KDE Supporting Members before Plasma 6 is released in February. We have already reached more than 💯.

Let's give it a push!

https://kde.org/fundraisers/plasma6member/

If you would like to donate just once, that's great too!:

A screenshot of the drive to encourage people to join KDE's Supporting Member program. The text reads: "Our aim is to reach 500 supporters before Plasma 6 launches in February 2024. With your support, we can achieve this milestone and ensure the continued success of KDE and the launch of Plasma 6." Then there is a progress bar showing 22% / 110 members signed up. Another paragraph below that reads: "Our aim is to reach 500 supporters before Plasma 6 launches in February 2024. With your support, we can achieve this milestone and ensure the continued success of KDE and the launch of Plasma 6." And then there is a picture of KDE's mascot dragons, Katie and Konqi, holding a jar in which coins are falling in.

    Wait KDE needs more money? That thing I use everyday? I’m signing up but I’m super new to linux could someone explain what KDE Plasma is exactly?

    Edit: okay so it’s a desktop environment and also makes 200 applications that run on all linux desktops, and are standard with my OS so I recognize a lot of their names.

    You could probably run your entire life only with programs built by KDE. They have chat clients, spreadsheets, encryption, file and software service, and like every useful basic tool.

    Edit: wait what they MAKE Krita? You’ve gotta be kidding me. They just make it work on Linux, right?

    LMAO.

    Franzia ,

    This list is incredible. But like I’ve had Krita on windows for ages, I had no clue it was KDE! I just looked at the page for Kdenlive and wow I see why it’s at the top of the list. Unbelievably deep software!

    Franzia ,

    NGL I found this page about how new goals are chosen every 3 years and this organization has rocketed into Fascinating status in my mind.

    KDE’s Current Goals

    Accessibility
    Sustainability
    Automation of internal processes

    So what are KDE projects coded in?

    Edit: develop.kde.org

    Page explains KDE frameworks, languages

    develop.kde.org/docs/getting-started/kxmlgui/

    And then has guides on learning to code within this platform.
