The KDE Gear 24.12.3 apps collection is expected to land, too, although parts of KDE Gear 25.04.x may be postponed due to the timing of release freezes and any potential library transitions required. </p>Mar 13 16:26

schestowitz[TR2]Frankly I don’t mind workers from India but it should be considered an expansion of headcount rather than replacement of headcount. If I found out that a large multi-billion dollar company hired me because I was cheaper to hire, I’d be extremely skeptical and think, “Oh, this company just wants to exploit my people for cheap labor despite their ability to give us more money.”Mar 13 18:49
schestowitz[TR2]Doesn’t that bother any Indians? Seriously, I’m curious to know.Mar 13 18:49
