Re: Plasma Next visual polish feedback from VDG core folks
Feedback on visual glitches bugs is as useful as any other bug report. What's more, poor visual polish is a critical barrier to adoption. Assuming we're of the opinion that people using our stuff is a swell idea, we should treat the problems as important. Developers tend not to because it doesn't match their own experience of the system, or their value system, but that doesn't mean that "I'm not using it because it looks fugly" isn't very _real_, and often less subjective than one might think.

Plasma Next visual polish feedback from VDG core folks
Hello all, I just had a quick question. If I have some feedback on areas to visually polish up for the Plasma Next release, should I file a bug or just share them via the email list? I honestly would rather just pitch in and submit review requests for patches but, unfortunately, I just don't have the bandwidth to do that. And *really* I hate being that guy in the peanut gallery yapping on about visuals and not pitching in to try to fix them. But I also didn't want to just be silent if the feedback would be useful. Anyway, let me know your preference. Thanks for your help and patience, Andrew Lake ___ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
