The system settings open to notifications and "request for donation" selected. It has been manually disabled after having actually popped up on screen (which I forgot to screenshot at the time.)

   Hey @kde I want you to get all the donations you need to keep going and then some, but having popups on our desktops that effectively amount to ads is a gigantic no-no that could push people away for good instead. This was not a good idea and I STRONGLY urge you to remove this "feature" ASAP.

   Yes even only once a year is still too often. No ads/etc should ever be a popup within the DE itself. That is never an acceptable practice. I think you underestimate people's well earned hatred of popups and ads. I assure you, they make us MAD.

   (I'm getting techbro vibes from the responses, so I'm just muting this. Consider this user feedback and ignore if you will.)
