It’s even more bonkers than it sounds. If you look at the code locations for that KDE count, you’ll see it also includes just about every KDE project. That’s not just Plasma, that’s hundreds of projects, including some really big ones like Krita, Kdenlive, Calligra, LabPlot, Kontact, Digikam and Plasma Mobile. Hell, it even includes KHTML/KJS, KDE’s defunct web engine as well as the ancestor of WebKit and Blink. It even includes AngelFish and Falkon, KDE’s current web browser frontends.
Same deal with GNOME. It includes just about everything on GNOME’s GitLab, even things that are merely hosted there without strictly being GNOME projects, like GIMP and GTK.
And yet still they are both that far behind Chromium and Firefox. Modern web browsers are ludicrous.
