KDE developers are hard at work right now at the Berlin headquarters of MBition, hacking away at the Frameworks Sprint, making Plasma, the back ends and libraries better.

I enjoyed this panel about Linux apps and ecosystems with folks from GNOME, KDE, elementary, Snap, and Flatpak all on one stage. We’re better when we work together where we overlap, even if we have different visions and end products. #LAS2019 #LinuxAppSummit

During the Frameworks sprint, KDE developers planned out the next major version of the libraries underpinning all of KDE's software. The upcoming improvements will make all of our software easier to maintain and deploy on a wide variety of platforms.

It's pretty amazing that you can develop an app using KDE's libraries in KDE's IDE, have wonderful artists make your project artwork in KDE's painting app and edit a video about it all in KDE's video editor. The number of organizations that could tell the same story can be counted on one hand. The scope of what the #KDE community does is stunning.

Thank you @federicomena for reminding people how to disclose security vulnerabilities (especially in FOSS projects) in a way that is beneficial for everyone.

We need people who check open source code for security vulnerabilities, because bugs only become shallow if enough eyeballs actually turn to them.
But we also need those people to report them in a way that does not do harm.
