We have archived the Dot -- because we have something better now
The Dot has served the KDE Community well as a the source of news for all our projects and contributors.
But, as KDE has grown, the amount of news has grown with us, to the point it has become impractical to filter it all through one source.
Check out our solution:

@that_leaflet There is a RSS feed for this blog specifically https://blogs.kde.org/categories/this-week-in-kde-apps/index.xml
@constancies @kde@lemmy.kde.social @vanillaos
Interesting you should bring that up. Watch this space...
It's an oldish HP Spectre with a foldable touchscreen from 2018.
Actually works very well.
That would be one of KDE Connects' main functions, yes. It makes sharing any kind of file (photos, videos, whatever) easy.
You can also share the content of your clipboard from your desktop to your phone and vice versa. So you would copy, say, a web address on your desktop, and you would be able to paste it into your web browser on your phone immediately.
