In this issue of "This Week in KDE Apps": We start migrating Kontact to Windows, Itinerary shows you where you are going (on a map!), and you get to Adopt an app!
https://blogs.kde.org/2024/11/10/this-week-in-kde-apps-adopt-an-app/
Support Good People and Adopt an App!
Our developers are volunteers, but they still need funding to travel to meetings and events, take time off their day job to implement those crucial features, and buy or rent equipment and server space.
You can help: Adopt an App during our #fundraiser and give our contributors the resources they need!
https://kde.org/fundraisers/yearend2024/
Donate to our Fundraiser, Support Good People!
@gnome, @tdforg, @fsfe and many other community-driven Free and Open Source organizations are the Good People of the tech world.
This year we are asking you consider them (and also maybe us!) when you #donate. Help out the people that fight for your digital rights, your privacy,and your right to not be exploited by predatory corporations in the tech industry.

... And can provide a way to save *the state* of an application to disk, stopping the app in its tracks and removing it from memory, so that later you can restore it just where you left off.

Yes.
Close all tabs and open frames until you have one (1) tab and one (1) frame (say your home directory), no split windows.
Tick the "Show Hidden Files" checkbox in your menu (or just hit Ctrl + h) to show hidden files.
All the folders, tabs and frames you open from now on will show the hidden files.
Neon will have it already. Arch is usually fast, too, as is openSUSE Tumbleweed. Beyond that, not sure. Sorry.

It is one of our main goals:
https://community.kde.org/Goals
and we are working accessibility design structures into all our software, not only the desktop.
If you have any advice you would like to share, please visit the links and tell us how we should do things.

"KDE" is a community of volunteers that makes and distributes Free Software.
"KDE Software" is all the apps, frameworks and libraries the KDE community produces. The KDE Software includes something called "Plasma".
Plasma is a desktop environment for UNIX-like operating systems (e.g. Linux and BSDs) developed by the KDE community.
Hope that helps.
