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.

Edit: wait what they MAKE Krita? You’ve gotta be kidding me. They just make it work on Linux, right?

Oh no. A lot of our apps are multi-platform and work on Windows, macOS and Android apart from Linux. We do all the work of converting them so they run everywhere... It can be a lot of work!

If you like Krita, check out Kdenlive. It will blow you mind.

Also check out https://apps.kde.org. There are a lot of cool things there too.

This list is incredible. But like I've had Krita on windows for ages, I had no clue it was KDE! I just looked at the page for Kdenlive and wow I see why it's at the top of the list. Unbelievably deep software!

So we still give away all the software for free, but maintaining and developing new versions (and new apps and features) requires quite a lot of resources. One of those resources is money. We rely on donations to get that.
