A lot of people are looking to migrate away from KDE Plasma because of this along with them pushing a wayland-only session. Trinity is an amazing option that has nearly all the same features Plasma has with a much lighter codebase and also works with Devuan and Xlibre.
The attitude was obvious already in 2008 (if my memory serves) when they were releasing KDE4 and nothing was working. Amazingly after this the so called "cancel" cultured became normality everywhere ... not only in KDE.
Basically: I do not like you, so I do not talk to you and because I have the authority, I enforce my ideas upon you.
I am still trying to find out where it came from and how it became the normal.
I am also not enabled to speak in the name of TDE project, but as an old member of the community my impression is that the leadership is open and tolerant. Politically everybody has own opinion, but we agreed to not talk about politics. We work together to keep the project running and beneficial to the users. The people are responsible and open for new ideas. If the proposed code is found beneficial and reasonable it is adopted, if not either changes are proposed or the code is rejected.
If you are interested in contributing. Go to the developers mailing/news list and ask for account to be able to login to https://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/gitea/ You have to sign NDA or whatever was necessary to guarantee your identity and responsibility (this is normal legal insurance on side of the project)
Enjoy
