I wonder why you implemented part of markdown, rather than using QTextDocument’s existing markdown support. Is something that you need missing?

I'm already using QTextDocument markdown support. Just QTextDocument markdown support doesn't include all the WYSIWYG functionalities.

Not yet unfortunately :(

carlschwan Mod ,

Thanks!

carlschwan Mod ,

Great!

carlschwan Mod ,

I plan to move the wysiwyg part to a library (probably Kirigami Addons) so that it can be easily reused by other projects.

If this happens again, feel free to contact me. Discussing bugs is fine here.

AUA: We are the Plasma dev team. Ask Us Anything about Plasma 6, gear 24.02, Frameworks 6 and everything else in the upcoming Megarelease.

David, Nate, Josh, Marco, Carl, and Niccolò are here ready to answer all your questions on Plasma (all versions), Gear, Frameworks, Wayland (and how it affects KDE's software), and everything in between....

carlschwan Mod ,

In addition to that Josh said, we have a list of mobile friendly first party applications here: https://plasma-mobile.org/ It's not completely up to date and is missing some newer additions.

carlschwan Mod ,

For me personally, it's the updated breeze theme. But I might not be completely objective here, since I drove this effort quite a lot :)

Some screenshots to see the difference: https://invent.kde.org/websites/product-screenshots/-/merge_requests/51/diffs

carlschwan Mod ,

Is there a dedicated page tracking updates specifically to KDE Connect?

It is part of KDE Gear, so generally in the gear release announcement. The last few releases were not that big in term of feature but the next one includes some goodies.

Does Connect use BTLE?

KDE Connect will have the Bluetooth backend enabled by default with the next gear release (24.02). I'm not sure if this is BTLE or normal Bluetooth.

Could you guys implement an auto tethering option between phone/PC?

No idea :(

How instant are notifications synced?

For me it is pretty instant. I never miss my Bereal notifications thanks to it :)

Do notifications disappear on one side or the other when viewed on one or the other platform?

Yes

Maybe implement a “link to KDE” notification toggle to mirror the “link to windows” functionality of Android?

No idea :(

carlschwan Mod ,

For me it's definively the new overview effect, I already use it all the time on my Plasma dev session.

I donate periodically to KDE, but my major gripe is that I don’t know where the money is going. They have no financial reports that can be easily found

The yearly reports of the KDE e.V. can be found in https://kde.org/community/donations/

individual projects don’t have a donation button

this is because giving money individually to a KDE subproject is a lot of logistic and unless the project is big and receive a lot of money, the amount collected for the individual project won't be enough to do anything meaningful for the project. But we had a trial with Kdenlive specific fundraising, which worked reasonably well last year so maybe we will see more subprojects specific fundraising in the future.

there’s no public tracking of their income or expenditure like on opencollective

yeah aside from the graphs in https://ev.kde.org/reports/ev-2022/#working-groups_ we don't publish detailed logs of every single transactions as they contain private details like how much our contractors are getting paid. KDE e.V. is a registered non-profit in Germany and the tax offices is very vigilant that nothing weird happens.

it’s not easy to find KDE devs (aka who is actually on the KDE team) so that one could sponsor individual devs

This developers accepting donations often have this info on their website. It's also possible to find KDE related people on liberapay https://liberapay.com/search?q=kde

carlschwan Mod ,

Yes but not only. Various other components inherit from QFrame and had by default a frame.

Thanks :) It’s always fun to meet users and we always put a bit of an effort to have a clean booth with a lot of hardware running Plasma :)

carlschwan Mod ,

Very cool. Nice work! I wonder how an implementation with KPart/C++ would look like

carlschwan Mod ,

Yes, sorry I was away on a conference for the ladt 3 days and I broke the ui jusr before leaving…

Meta: downtime this weekend

Apologies for the downtime of lemmy.kde.social. I made a minor update to our lemmy instance on Friday and this was a bad idea as this broke the server. I roll-backed our server from the last backup but ended up with the same issue. I unfortunately didn’t had the time to investigate the issues during the weekend....

carlschwan Mod ,

It would be great to have and I actually started writing tiny bit of code for this, but unfortunately my bandwidth is already saturated with maintaining merkuro, tokodon, neochat and a bunch of other apps.

But if someone is interested in writing an app, I’ll be happy to help a bit.

carlschwan Mod ,

Did you try:


<span style="color:#323232;">import org.kde.plasma.networkmanagement 0.2 as PlasmaNM
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">PlasmaNM.NetworkStatus {
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    id: networkStatus
</span><span style="color:#323232;">}
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">PlasmaComponents3.Label {
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    visible: networkStatus.connectivity !== PlasmaNM.NetworkManager.Full
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    text: i18n("Network disconnected")
</span><span style="color:#323232;">}
</span>

This use an enum and should be a lot more robust

Only one way to find out, come to Akademy this Saturday in Greece 😉 totally not too short notice

This week in KDE: we modernized the breeze cursors, created a new banner component and released a "KDE For Travelers" webpage.

Another week full of great stuff 😍

carlschwan Mod ,

I wanted to do a graphical refresh of it before doing so. But it’s definitively planned
