A worldwide technology community 🌍 Creators of the Plasma desktop & a variety of Free and open source applications that let you control your digital life.
Many app projects do not have the infrastructure to accept donations (but som do: check the individual pages of each app or donate through GitHub).
You donate to KDE, and that reverts to the project maintainers, developers and other contributors.
We also need funding 💶 to keep the gears turning! Please support us with a donation:

On KDE’s 28th anniversary, it is worth looking back to see how we got here. Check out our timeline 🕰️:
That is _exactly_ what kio-gdrive does. If it is not working for you, there is an error in your configuration or a bug in your distro’s packaging of the software.
@that_leaflet There is a RSS feed for this blog specifically https://blogs.kde.org/categories/this-week-in-kde-apps/index.xml

Interesting you should bring that up. Watch this space…
It’s an oldish HP Spectre with a foldable touchscreen from 2018.
Actually works very well.
That would be one of KDE Connects’ main functions, yes. It makes sharing any kind of file (photos, videos, whatever) easy.
You can also share the content of your clipboard from your desktop to your phone and vice versa. So you would copy, say, a web address on your desktop, and you would be able to paste it into your web browser on your phone immediately.
Note that due to unforeseen circumstances, we have been unable to ship the new wallpaper, “Reef”, with this version of Plasma. However, a new wallpaper will be coming soon in the next 6.2 version of Plasma.
If you can’t wait, you can download “Reef” from here:
We would like to remind you that both @Krita and @kdenlive are currently running fundraisers:
#Krita :
No ads, no spyware, no demos, as all software is fully functional and free. Also no subscriptions, no license fees, no unwanted communications.
A KDE-based system includes lots of customization possibilities (i.e. you can change practically everything in you system and desktop environment), but is also perfectly functional as is, even if you do not change a thing.
KDE software will work on most hardware, even on old, under-powered computers.

The few euros that reach the projects, helps fund development. There are also some apps on Steam and it is the same idea.
