But, however, such a mindset does not actually convince people that the devs contributing to KDE are very professional. If they don't really want to contribute to get this fixed then maybe an open source project is not the right thing for them to do and they should just leave the field to someone else who actually wants to give other people working software. Pretending to be willing to fix such a bug and then just doing nothing certainly is not the right way! And I really don't care if I am pissing somebody of with this because it's the truth. Actually, this mindset of a lot of people in the open source community is one of the reasons why most people use commercial software. It's just tiresome to deal with such people. But nevermind! I don't have to deal with this crap anymore. I will just never use plasma again. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
