Become a Promo team member

Thank you for showing interest in becoming a Promo contributor! We're always looking for new people willing to spread the good word about KDE software.

If you would like to help us, here are some initial tasks and things you can do.

Keep up with Promo discussions


The channel/group is the place where Promo contributors keep in touch. Introduce yourself and feel free to ask anything you'd like to know about KDE.


  • Join our mailing lists ([email protected] and [email protected]). We announce important news and hold detailed discussions about the future of the KDE Community on those mailing lists.


As you become familiar with different KDE teams and projects, you may want to join their mailing lists. Feel free to browse through all mailing lists and join the ones that interest you. Note: some mailing lists are traffic-heavy, so be prepared for a lot of emails.



  • Important: always communicate politely and follow the KDE Code of Conduct in all discussions with other KDE Promo team members. If you're new to the KDE Community, please take some time to get familiar with the CoC so we can all have a pleasant time and collaborate nicely. :)


Follow KDE on social media

  • This is the easiest way to contribute to KDE Promo - follow our accounts and share our content, or post KDE-related content on your own social media profiles. You can tag us in your posts, too. That way we can see them and share them on our main accounts. When writing posts for social media, make sure to follow our guidelines.


  • Accounts to follow:


  • Subscribe to Planet KDE (either via RSS or follow the account on Twitter). Every day there will be some blog posts from the community. Pick a few posts from there and promote them on your own social media accounts. This is good practice for writing social media posts -you can learn how to best utilize hashtags, the importance of images, posting at the right time of day...


  • FOR BONUS POINTS: is there a local KDE community in your country or city? Follow their social media accounts and share their content. You can also translate their social media posts into other languages and share them on your account. Example: Spanish speakers can follow KDE España.

Promote KDE at conferences, hackathons and other live events

  • If you're interested in organizing your own KDE-related event, or representing us at an existing one, you can find some advice on the Events wiki page. Please get in touch with other Promo members on IRC/Telegram or on mailing lists to coordinate the organization, budget, and other related tasks.
