So which part of all those ecosystems are you claiming Europe could not maintain? Before you answer remember that Ubuntu is European, SUSE and openSUSE are European, Manjaro is European, most Arch developers are European, LibreOffice is European, KDE is European, GPG is European... I could go on, but, with all that shared expertise, are you sure that Europe does not possess the know-how to recreate and maintain all and every part of the Linux ecosystem?

Edit: When I say "European" I mean "started in and mainly run by people based in Europe".

Eeeeh... Not really. Remember licensing guarantees the right to fork. Many developers are not from the US and I would bet that both Asia and Europe (and probably other continents too) have the know how to manage a fork.

Adopt NeoChat! in c/kde@lemmy.kde.social
[–] Bro666@lemmy.kde.social 0 points 1 week ago (3 children)

There are two ways of getting features into KDE in a speedy fashion :

  1. contributing to our fundraiser, or donating to the project, or whatever. That is, providing the developers with means to get stuff done, either by buying them time so they can spend it on developing, or hiring help. If you are on this thread it is because you are doing this, or considering doing this, or whatever, so we can assume you already know about this.

  2. contributing with your know-how. Check out our get involved page, as it describes in detail how you can help with the implementation the things NeoChat needs.

The latest Slimbook is pretty cool. Plus it has the KDE symbol emblazoned on the lid.

[–] Bro666@lemmy.kde.social 8 points 3 weeks ago

KDE is not introducing a new notification framework. It is using something that already exists, so still barking up the wrong tree.

If you bothered to read the linked article and Volker's blog post (linked from the article), which you obviously haven't, you would see how this is not the case.

What would you ask our KDE goal champions? in c/kde@lemmy.kde.social
