Happy 20th Birthday, KDE!

Dear #KDE Community, I got stuck to your software back in 2006, I believe, when a #Kubuntu installation enriched my first laptop. Since then I got myself part of the wider community, met awesome people like Frank Karlitschek and Jos Poortvliet amongst others at several conferences, and ten years later I am doing free software with those, and on my favorite #Linux desktop, KDE Plasma (although now on #Antergos). Thanks for the awesome software over decades! Cheers to you!

Can you believe it's been 20 years since the KDE (Kool Desktop Environment) was announced on the 14th of October, 1996, by project founder Matthias Ettrich? Well, it has, and today we'd like to say a happy 20th birthday to KDE!

Gentoo was my long time favourite too. Too bad I don't have the mental stamina to do it all again. Though I think it might be much faster process this time, when I last had Gentoo I compiled and ran it on three AMD K6 (I, II and III) machines as opposed to the I7 I currently use.

I'm very happy with KDE on my ArchLinux systems. Really up to date, and for the most part rock solid.
