@kde @kde What are the plans for Trojita? It had IMAP feature complete e-Mail without the performance problems that has a tradition in KDE PIM. I saw no more releases since KDE took over.

Phone Link is Microsoft's late and closed source alternative to KDE Connect. It requires you sign in to a Microsoft Account for it to work.

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/phone-link-requirements-and-setup-cd2a1ee7-75a7-66a6-9d4e-bf22e735f9e3

This means all the transactions between your phone and your PC are monitored and sucked up by Microsoft.

I am a student and over summer I work in IT in a company where we manage users in a Active Directory. Adding a Ubuntu into a domain it's pretty easy, but I can't say the same for KDE distros like Kubuntu.

I would love, if you make it more Windows compatible to run in a infrastructure that was designed for Windows, but will be adapting also Linux PC/servers.

If you don't use Bing with Edge, Microsoft will tell you your computer needs repairing.

https://www.tomsguide.com/computing/windows-operating-systems/microsoft-now-says-your-pc-is-in-need-of-repair-if-youre-not-using-bing-with-edge

They are not wrong.

To mend your machine:

  1. Ditch Windows
  2. Install Plasma
  3. Your computer is ready.

I use DDG on Edge, and haven't seen this.

I've got Mint on an old laptop. It seemed to require the least amount of fuckery to get working. No idea what Plasma is.

I just want an OS and browser, not a project.
