I am a long-term #KDEPIM user and recently read that due to progress in #SQLite’s performance #Akonadi is now defaulting to that DB on a fresh install.
A few days ago I took the chance and ran `akonadi-db-migrator --newengine sqlite` and it was both painless and I definitely see both lower resource consumption and the PIM suite seems much snappier too!
@ervin, I see you’ve been at #Akademy and held a #KDEPIM BoF.
There was a topic on how to gather more info from users.
As an avid user of #KMail, #KOrganizer and #Zanshin, I have (quite) some feedback and bug reports to provide. But whenever I try to, it seems to end up in the void.
I think a first step would be concentrate on the number of communication channels that devs can actually manage. For both their sanity and the users’.

#KDE has long had a technology called #KParts. Basically you can set up something (including a full app) as a #KPart component and use it elsewhere as part of another (tools bars and menus will merge).
My understanding is that #Kate & #KWrite are a good example. Both now use the same editor component, but Kate adds a LOT of extra functionality to it. The #KDEPIM suite uses the same trick with it's components - they can run separately or as one combined app (#Kontact).
I'm not fully across the technology, so if any experts wish to correct me, feel free. 🤠
#KDEPIM 24.12.2 uploaded to #DebianUnstable. The plan is to ship #Trixie with 24.12.3 which will be released in March.
#Qt 6.8.2 is packaged in #Debian Experimental and will hopefully be uploaded to Unstable soon to make it into Trixie.
Today was my last day on #KDE #akademy , so here are some personal highlights regarding #kdepim
▶️ #akonadi resources in #rust are now closer to reality
▶️ Akonadi Resource for Outlook/Microsoft365 is being worked on (in Rust 
!!)
▶️ We have a dedicated EWS server for testing, expect bugfixes!
It was amazing being on Akademy again after 5 years and seeing all my KDE friends. Thanks everyone for a great Akademy and see you next year 
ok so renaming a folder (with something like nextcloud) doesn't sync properly to akonadi- I do not know why or how... or where to report this... someone help?
