I am a big fan of KDE, but having qt's role in mind I wouldn't be too sure. I think they already try to enforce tracking there.
Qt is exactly why I'm so sure. They made sure that there was a legal agreement that Qt would always stay open source or else they'd get the ability to make it available under a BSD license: https://kde.org/community/whatiskde/kdefreeqtfoundation/
That's a project that understands the entanglement and doesn't allow itself to be taken over.
That's amazing news. Thank you for clarifying
