@kde @sovtechfund
I don't use KDE, but good on you. Make your users proud

[r3pek@mastodon.r3pek.org]

@eskealler yep didn't even knew there was a rewrite. Maybe that would bring more plug-ins/integrations (you know, as much as I don't like o365/drive, enterprise entities do used them, but that's another conversation on itself)

@r3pek @kde @sovtechfund

I will try it out, not having MS support at the moment fine by me. I think the argument for MS support is there, specifically for allowing migration.

[r3pek@mastodon.r3pek.org]

@eskealler I think that that it's biggest "issue". We all want to migrate to open standards and all, but the data still lives on the "old" places (again, specially on the enterprise world)

@kde @sovtechfund Next Time 1 Mio €.

@kde @sovtechfund hope you invest in EU infrastructure and not use it like other to pay up more US hyperscaler (i know you already use EU server i just hope more of them and no Fastly / other non EU cdn (for eu user of course).

Awesome! All of it is good and useful. I'll admit though that the one that's sexiest to me is the KDE Linux stuff (writing from that venerable distro on my laptop right now Fund #KDELinux

@kde @sovtechfund KDE is a very good choice

[maltimore@social.tchncs.de]

@sovtechfund @kde money very well spent, this made my day

@r3pek @kde @sovtechfund if you manage to log in to MS 365 with Konqueror and open OneDrive there, you can replace `https` with `webdavs` in the URL bar and it'll give you the folder view.

I don't think there is any other environment where this works as smoothly as KDE.

(This all relies on WebDAV being able to use the cookie from the original login process.)
