I'm loving how this gets posted to the Lemmy community as well directly from the Mastodon account!

One is KDE's official Mastodon account, the other is KDE's Lemmy community.

@Bro666 I think that it should be added to the account description to make it clearer

Well... The KDE Mastodon account posts like any other account. It is not technically special in any way.

@Bro666 @croydon I think he meant that it should be added to the lemmy community's description (on some fedi software it appears as a normal account, or one with a group or bot label). It would probably be best if lemmy or Mastodon added something that labels it as a community or explains what a "group" is, but the description could also say it, like how the KDE subreddit's description starts with "Kreddit, the KDE Community on Reddit" (it's for a different reason but it could work).

@croydon @kde @[email protected] It allows to post on both Lemmy KDE Community and Mastodon at the same time, which I think is pretty cool

I assume you're posting from mastodon? the Lemmy account is for a software called lemmy: https://join-lemmy.org/

I'm also posting from that platform right now

@kde I love this part ! 😂

Because we’re KDE, all of this work is happening in a fairly anarchic, nonlinear fashion. We don’t have change control meetings or prevent people from working on later-stage tasks. This takes skill in communication and git rebase to avoid stepping on people’s toes. 🙂 But it is happening, in its own messy and beautiful way.

I love KDE 💘

Love reading about the progress! I'm not advanced enough to test myself, but hopefully more people can start jumping in to make this a great release.

Plasma 6 Bugs

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

If it hasn't, report it yourself.

PLEASE THINK CAREFULLY BEFORE POSTING HERE.

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