  • And the software providing the calendar and contacts features can be uninstalled

    I don’t understand what that has to do with anything. You can uninstall the entire DE if you want to.

    What’s the distinction you’re making?

    One is integrated into the system and the other is not? I thought that was pretty clear…?

    It doesn’t make nextcloud any more centrally integrated than steam is.

    Steam is not integrated. At all.

    By this logic Steam is “integrated into the distro” on distros like Bazzite

    Steam does not integrate into the calendar, contacts, filesystem, etc.

    What’s “integrated” doesn’t really tell anyone anything.

    Except that it’s integrated…?

    it’s much more useful to tell people “KDE provides integration with this thing”

    But it’s not, because it’s not limited to KDE. They pretty much all do.

    That “usually” is doing a lot of heavy lifting

    I can only speak to my experience. And in my experience pretty much every distro has this built in. I think its actually built into the DE.

    I tried looking into the extent of the integration but there wasn’t a lot of information and I don’t use it for those things anyway but I’m pretty sure it at least does file sync, contacts and calendar.

    Anyway, this is a KDE feature. Not “integrated into the distro”.

    KDE is part of the distro.
