There is no "KDE team". Unless you're referring to the openSUSE KDE team here, and in this case you're doing a great disservice to the (*volounteers*, every one of them) who package the software *you* are using.
As far as there being a KDE team, this is right off the KDE website: "The KDE® Community is an international technology team" You are extremely out of touch with reality. I'm not doing a disservice; I'm doing a service. It's people like me that make FOSS better by reporting problems. I guess if you had it your way, you would have everybody be sheep and report how excellent everything is working and praise all the new bells and whistles which in actually are garbage.
This is FOSS, not a professional organization.
Thanks for the lecture.
If Baloo was that toxic to everyone's computer, why people did not test it in advance? I can understand that not everyone is supposed to test beta software, but the fact that *zero* people, or close to zero did it tells me something about how much the FOSS community knows about being good citizens.
That's not my problem. I, like many other people, have other things going on in my life and throughout my day. I wasn't aware that KDE 4.13 was going to have a shitty new indexing system that completely sucked, and is causing all types of people to get mad, not to mention that it's sucking their system resources dry. Maybe if I would have known about it I would have tested it, but the KDE website is poorly organized and it's hard to find anything on it. Is this the global push for worldwide Linux adoption on the desktop? It's not working very well.
It really makes me bitter to think that all that it was tried to do to ensure that reports could be caught in time to ensure a better user experience was all for *nothing*, and only later the complaints (and nothing else, almost) arrived. It makes me wonder at times why do I *bother* to give support on the KDE Community Forums.
Here's a word of advice: If you can't handle critisism (you obviously are an overly sensitive person), then it would probably wise to take a hike. When there's problems, i report them, and I report my experiences. And guess what -- I'm not changing, nor am I going to change the way that I communicate.
You could have spared a rant: there is a clear mention of the "baloo-file" message in the announcement we made regarding 4.13 availability in KDE:Current.
Again, you are out of touch with what the problem is, what the users are saying, and this just shows exactly why Baloo is there in the first place. Have a nice day. On Mon, Apr 28, 2014 at 5:36 AM, Luca Beltrame <lbeltrame@kde.org> wrote:

If you remove baloo-file, it won't touch your hard disk at all.

And even in the KDE community at large, of which I am part of, there is no such team. This is FOSS, not a professional organization.

Since the new search system was introduced, in the first beta, I wrote to the mailing list asking the brave to test it to ensure we had a smooth experience later on. Aside the openSUSE KDE team and a few others, no one did. How can you fix something that you do *not* know it's broken?

was surprised that the GUI offers barely any options, and that it's opt-out and not opt-in.
Again, this GUI change was in since beta 1.
