Description

Description

KDE traditionally has a reputation of being a little resource hungry, complicated. would be cool to let people write down things which can be simplified, not necessarily implemented yet, a little bit like collecting ideas for the next 2 years. that may be anything from a weird default key binding, to one application having too much source code paths.

What it will take

What is your plan for making it happen? What do we need to do to make this reality? What kind of support do you need?

How we know we succeeded

Will we have fluffy kittens? Anything we can measure? How will the world be better once we're done with this?

Relevant links

Any links that will help people find more information and understand the goal better?

Champions

This is more working on dissolving that particular reputation and clearer communication.

Each goal needs Champions. If no-one is found it will unfortunately not be eligible for voting.

Hello,

Please note that the deadline just around the corner on Wednesday, so now is the time to finalize your proposal. Remember that proposals without a Goal Champion will be disqualified, so this step is crucial to ensure your idea moves forward. If you need help or have any questions, please let me know.

If you’re unable to finish your proposal but still want to participate, consider contributing to other ongoing tasks.

Thank you for submitting your ideas for the KDE Goals!

This assumes that removing functionality actually results in less resource utilization, which isn't necessarily the case
