@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social Although I'm a Gnome user for about 25 years, I always have a look at what's going on in the KDE universe! Happy birthday and thanks for the great work to make the Linux desktop even more enjoyable! πŸŽ‚

I haven't been on their website in forever and it's just crazy to me to see the steam deck listed as preinsalled with plasma. Like I know it is but to think a device that successful is associated with KDE is just so exciting

It feels amazing when I'm back at home after working all day with Gnome and enjoy my beloved KDE. No hate towards Gnome, but I'm in love with KDE.

Happy birthday KDE!

The first Linux distro (Suse) I have ever tried had KDE. This was in 1999 I think. If only Linux gaming had been as great then as it is today..

I used to do some KDE development back in 2007ish - still have a dev account I think.

KDE is awesome πŸ˜ŽπŸ‘

My first taste of Linux was SuSE 7.1 on some KDE 2 version I can't remember. It's my Ol Reliable.
