Necessitas is not Phonon, I don't think that redirect is correct.

@nalvarez wrong copy paste ;)

What about http://kde.com ? Some recently linked to it on Reddit, but it's an outdated copy of https://kde.org

That isn't even controlled by us unfortunately.

I think we should redirect

https://multimedia.kde.org/

to

https://kde.org/applications/multimedia

There is really close to no content on the old page and most of it is wrong anyways ;=)

Same with games.kde.org:
