In that same Mastodon thread:
Response from KDE account:
David Gerard said “KDE Conf just wants to talk about going full AI slop desktop”.
So… where’s the inaccuracy (let alone “deceit”) in anything David Gerard said?
Well, there is a big difference between “someone submitted a talk about going full AI to the KDE conference” and “the KDE conference wants to have a talk about going full AI and this is probably what the leadership wants and is just looking to get rubber stamped”.
Imagine if someone made a post called “I think the lemmy.world admins should sell out to Meta and make big money” and this was reported as “lemmy.world is debating selling out to Meta; this is probably what the admins wanted to do all along”.
The core of the matter may be true but the way it’s talked about is anything but accurate.
David Gerard never said anything about the leadership of KDE. And KDE is “talking” about whether to slop it up or not.
