This fundraiser initiative was a very good shot, well done!
@thibaultmol @kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social I totally agree. We even use the #okular part in #RKWard. Okular is really great software.
"This Week in KDE Apps" brings improvements to Haruna, Kate and KMyMoney (among many others); and a whole new app: Karp, a tool for visually arranging and editing PDF documents.

KDE For Activists
Free Software activists give you control over technology, and help defend your digital #rights. We create means that allow us to become organized and connected, bypassing utilities controlled by unethical corporations.
"KDE For Activists" helps you too leverage the tools to effectively organize rallies, privately communicate with fellow #community members, and safely manage your own grassroots #movement .
https://kde.org/for/activists/
For activists, by activists.

https://blogs.kde.org/2024/11/10/this-week-in-kde-apps-adopt-an-app/
Support Good People and Adopt an App!
Our developers are volunteers, but they still need funding to travel to meetings and events, take time off their day job to implement those crucial features, and buy or rent equipment and server space.
You can help: Adopt an App during our #fundraiser and give our contributors the resources they need!
