Glad the dev is managing their capacity, hopefully others will maintain it. Unfortunately phone sync is tightly controlled, limited to paid storage services, as offered by the phone makers.

Unfortunately (or fortunately?) this appears to be untrue.

Polaris is a cluster of stars formed about 2 billion years ago. Sharks originated about 450 million years ago.

One star of Polaris (Aa) appears to be 50 million years old, but it seems likely due to a collision of stars which added mass to it.

Worries around this seem a bit much. They are making an experimental version of the protocol so they don’t need to sit on their hands while changes are accepted. They’re not bypassing the normal process.

As someone who only uses default kde settings: no!

This is the type of change I wouldn’t notice until a default created UX friction, and not being able to fix that change would drive me away from the DE. Having the option to hack at something means i can use it for much longer without concern.
