Thank you to Nextcloud for hosting the board of KDE e.V. this weekend for a board meeting. David, @npub1u74v...ch96, @Eike Hein :kde:, @Carl Schwan :kde: and I kicked off the new year. We discussed the current state of the organization, fundraising, staffing, policy outreach and more. Ready for an awesome year ahead!

One of the best activities to wrap up the year with? Reading over 2500 donor comments for @KDE's fundraiser. Thank you to everyone who donated to make our work over the next year possible! Here are some of my favorite notes donors left with their donation. 💙 🐉
