Description Eugene Savitsky 2024-08-29 16:12:14 UTC
https://kde.org/fundraisers/plasma6member/ - there is a good text explanation why donations are needed and a very good motivator as a progress bar, that is funny to follow and see the community size.

That text and progress bar should be added (or even merged) to the main donation page: https://kde.org/donate/ - that, at this point, is too corporate and formal, does not motivate people to donate...

I think that something that looks close to what https://www.haiku-os.org/ is what you were thinking.
Is that right?

Yes, or like this:
https://kde.org/community/donations/previousdonations/ - month by month

Speaking of that site, they should improve the colors, but that's a topic for a different bug.
But I think what you're thinking of should be converted (in my opinion that is)
