--- Comment #362 from michel <miz...@web.de> ---
For many years it has sadly been the custom in software development on all
platforms to neglect debugging and instead prioritize the development of new
features. I had always hoped that when I started with Linux (2001) I would be
exempt from this unfortunate development. With a few exceptions, that seemed to
be the case.

It is unbelievable, however, that the most important GUI for Linux in
particular completely neglects this principle that debugging has priority over
new features. Few developers seem to want to prescribe important levers to a
majority of what they should use and how.

There is no official statement. It would be interesting to know whether this
attempt at user control is even known above.

If this continues, you will also have to address other addressees than "only"
here in this forum.

This thread has been smoldering for years, some people promise some vague
solutions, others try on the bend and break to make some crutch solutions
palatable to the users.

Are we here in kindergarten or participants and also representatives of an
operating system that is very much ahead of the other known platforms. Yet. If
this continues indefinitely, the day is not far off when Redmont and Cupertino
are on par with Linux. The GUI in particular is the first interface of an
operating system that users come into contact with. However, there should not
be slimmed-down minimal solutions, but something representative that you can be
proud of as a long-time user. Just the thought of such a future makes me sick.
These guys who appear here screwed it up with their nebulous delaying tactics,
which are not followed by any deeds.

This can not be it!

Where are the key developers and project managers who take user concerns
seriously and determine the direction in which KDE is headed in this case? If
someone knows that and publishes it here, I would be very grateful. Let us no
longer allow ourselves to be fobbed off with empty words!

Bye
Michael

P.S. The text was translated with Google Translate, as my knowledge of English
has taken the same path over the years as KDE - apparently bumped into the
ceiling.
