Ok. If you're only getting this data for promotion after software has already been developed I think you're not going to be in a very good position. What you want then is product management in the broadest sense. Which means in this case getting input for the developers before they write the software to help them make more informed decisions. That'll make everything afterwards much easier. KDE promo has not been in a position to really do this so far but that is something that can change. > As far as it being desktop-centric, that is intentional.

We need to be very very careful with anything that pushes us more into the desktop-only corner. We've been working on this for so long. We shouldn't paddle back unless there are really good reasons. And yes the desktop is what our users are mostly using right now but that is because that is the biggest and most mature thing we have to offer. If we had more and better offerings in other areas this would look very different. We need to think about where we want to go and take steps in that direction instead of only focusing on what we have. https://medium.com/@noah_weiss/manage-your-time-like-google-invests-its-resources-70-20-10-3bb4d600abaa is a really good article about this.
