Asking for donations in Plasma

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

No problem... Once a year is fine. It's a non-profit based in Germany...
Thunderbird shows it once at every startup...
WinRaR has begged me for money for years
Why use winrar when 7zip and peazip are right there?
While I was still on Windows, the killer feature that kept WinRar installed, instead of only using 7zip, was the simple fact that its file explorer supported hotkeys like Ctrl+C, and that you could seamlessly copy files to and from Windows' file explorer.
I'm pretty sure PeaZip supports these as well
PeaZip is nice. I don't use 7zip because it looks and feels ancient. Both are open source and better than WinRAR though.
Well, you do in theory need a license to use winrar for more than 30 days
Honestly didn't realise till you pointed that out. I'm so used to seeing it that it doesn't register to me what it's saying anymore. Probably for the best that KDE only does it once a year; if it were daily I'm sure it wouldn't even register to people that it's asking for donations.
Thunderbird was dead until it added a donations banner then used the donations to hire some programmers.
