The fundraiser is not over! We want to reach €70K by the end of January, but we would like to start acknowledging all those who have adopted KDE apps and made our community's job easier.
We start by sending out our gratitude to Tanguy Fardet and dabe for adopting NeoChat, our native Matrix chat app that works both on desktop and mobile devices. You can still adopt it as there are 3 slots left.
Tokodon, KDE's Mastodon app for desktop and mobile, has been adopted by @petejones, @DaisyLee and Karcsesz, and still has 2 slots left.
Merkuro, our next generation calendaring system, has been adopted by manchicken and Nithanim, and there is still space for more adoptions.
One of our newer apps, a multiplatform eBook reader called Arianna, was adopted by Erik Bernoth.

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social Thank you all for making this incredible software suite, you deserve all the love
This fundraiser initiative was a very good shot, well done!
@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social So many people are sleeping on #Okular
it's insane how many capabilities it has. Such an underrated application
@thibaultmol @kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social underrated is every kde application out there.
@thibaultmol @kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social I totally agree. We even use the #okular part in #RKWard. Okular is really great software.
@thibaultmol @kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social
What would be your top3 user level capabilities?
@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social I could imagine if this is multi touch compatible, on a touchscreen laptop would be really cool
Cue KRuler maintainers wondering about the spike of downloads they haven’t seen in like 15 years.
@Bro666 You could say that the app..
.....
Krules!
Angry upvote
@Bro666 the best kind of upvote
@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social Wait, that's a thing??? I need that! :v
@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social Is it possible to have centimeters too on the ruler? Can do that by asking the size of the monitors, i think.
