- dschuetz 8y agoI wonder why it was "understaffed". Wrong decisions? Complete mess that still calls itself KDE?
- tahanij 8y agoI don't think there's any organisation currently funding the development of KDE.
- emilsedgh 8y agoBecause the "staff" are volunteers and nobody pays them.
- justaj 8y agoThat's not entirely true: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KDE#Contributors https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KDE#Contributors Some core devs are employed or have been employed by companies such as Novell, Nokia and Blue Systems.

- caght 8y agoIn the past, yes. Currently, no.
- cpburns2009 8y agoGNOME looks like it was designed by an iOS fanboy. KDE looks far more mature and professional.
- alxlaz 8y agoHow is it so different from Gnome 3's design? The parent's complaints were about wasted space estate, inadequate font choice and bland colors; Adwaita, Gnome 3's default theme, suffers from the exact same problems -- in fact, many desktop applications today suffer from the exact same symptoms, largely due to professional designers who should know better copycatting mobile design on desktop systems.
