@gcompris @kde wow! Thanks for your hard work!
I think I'll start letting my daughter play educational games in around a year (if she wants), and GCompris will be the first!

kde really wants to piss off gnome with this name.

[–] leopold@lemmy.kde.social 5 points 8 months ago (2 children)

The name is like this because it originally was a GNOME project. It moved over to KDE after the lead developer found GTK to be insufficient for Android support and decided to port to QtQuick.

That explains a lot. Thanks

@leopold @riodoro1 it wasn't a gnome app, but a gtk gnu app.

Well, it was on GNOME's GitLab instance so I figured it was GNOME, but I guess that's not quite the same thing since GIMP is also on there and that's not GNOME.
