@kde This is awesome news!

Do you know if any of that money might be spent on hiring some contracted UX/UI designers? From the sounds of the usual blogs, it seems that the developers also play the role of designer most of the time, and having a dedicated (if perhaps small) team of people who’s sole responsibility it is to design clean, uncluttered interfaces for the KDE suite might be just what KDE needs to reach that “inflection point,” I feel.
