Note that all telemetry is opt-in.
Plasma
- Application version: to know if our users are up to date
- Compiler information: to know if issues in non-mainstream compilers are relevant
- Platform information: to know how popular the Wayland session is compared to X11
- Qt version: to know how different versions of Qt and Plasma interrelate
- Usage time: to find out how many users are using the software heavily vs in passing
- OpenGL version and vendor information: to learn about our users' hardware; can we trust users to have proper 3D acceleration? Which drivers should be testing? Do people prefer open drivers?
- Locale information: To find out if people from different locales are struggling to use Plasma. Are we not getting bug reports because they just don't even consider using it?
- Screen parameters: to find out how common multi-screen usage is in Plasma
- Panel Count (Plasma Shell): to find out how common it is for people to customize their Panels
- Application Source Name (Plasma Discover): to find out where users prefer to get their software from
Kate (starting with Release 20.04) & KWrite (starting with Release 22.08)
- Application version: to know which application versions are still in use
- Qt version: to know the underlying Qt version (e.g. to see how important workarounds for old issues are)
- Platform information: to know the operating system we are running on
- Screen parameters: to find out how common multi-screen usage is
- Start count: to find out how frequent users use our editor
- Usage time: to find out how many users are using the software heavily vs in passing
Reviews for the introduction/changes of telemetry data submission
- Initial introduction for Kate
- Initial introduction for KWrite
Pim (starting with Release 20.04)
