Spread the Word

Nicht-technische Mitwirkende sind ein wichtiger Teil des Erfolgs von KDE. Während proprietäre Softwarefirmen riesige Werbebudgets für neue Software-Veröffentlichungen haben, hängt KDE davon ab, dass Menschen mit anderen Menschen sprechen. Selbst für diejenigen, die keine Software-Entwickler sind, gibt es viele Möglichkeiten, die Veröffentlichung von KDE-Anwendungen zu unterstützen. Berichten Sie Fehler. Ermutigen Sie andere, sich der KDE Gemeinschaft beizutreten. Oder unterstützen Sie die Non-Profit-Organisation hinter der KDE-Gemeinschaft
