If you encounter a bug, proceed to https://bugs.kde.org, check whether it has been reported.

If it hasn't, report it yourself.

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

Edit: it was a bug where I was not sure if it is a bug or just a config issue.

I would be happy about having an automated message linking to bugzilla when such a removal happens.

I posted something related to Plasma and cursor issues with Flatpaks, and it was removed.

I cannot see who removed it.

I tried contacting the KDE account but got no reply.

Well usually I report stuff that may not be a bug in some other media first.

Edit: Mod responded in a comment to the post, seems like the rules allow for discussion of bugs here and the removal was seemingly in error. What I said still applies to a lot of places in online Linux communities though so I'll leave it up, glad to see that KDE community stands up for its values.

~~Yeah I agree with this method. It's a way of avoiding wasting developer time by just seeing if it's something nice and simple first. Annoys me when I see so many posts get removed all across forums accusing it of being a bug report when most of the time it's just a simple question with good intentions of not wasting their time, which upon removal creates a bug report that ironically is a waste of their time in most cases, since it's usually a support request, not a bug.~~

~~Stuff like this is what pushes people away from the Linux communities and makes people feel unwelcomed. No intent of spiting admin decisions of course, but there's a reason Linux is perceived as hostile, even if people don't intend it as such.~~

~~What I said might be considered controversial, but I stand by it full-heartedly.~~
