If you want "all the stuff from the KDE community" then x11/kde5 is a good
thing to install (although that doesn't install **all** ofall of it). But you
could run any one of a number of applications from the KDE community
individually. Like krita, if you're a painter, or kdenlive if you want to do
video editing or ..

As far as net/kblog goes, it was removed upstream, see the not-very-
informative upstream issue at
https://phabricator.kde.org/T12157
The (Wordpress?) blogging client from KDE is unmaintained, so the supporting
stack for that application goes away upstream eventually as well.

PS. Thanks for reminding .. I saw that blogilo was still mentioned in the
kdepim pkg-descr, which I've now removed.
