Anyone else having trouble buying a steam controller?

Is there a digital thundering herd buying them all?
Spamming the continue button a lot actually worked for me. Like 40 times really fast.

I hope the driver exposes r, g and b files within the /dev tree so it can sync the system accent color to it in plasma.

Quoting: PublicNuisanceIf KDE were to have something transparent like an Open Collective so i'd see how the money is being used then i'd donate as I enjoy using KDE Connect. I don't mind the pop up message.

It's not very in depth, but it shows in general where the money is coming from and where it's going. Donations are also tax-deductible in Germany because they are "gemeinnützig" meaning that it has to be for the public good and their by-laws require that the money is used to support KDE.
