>> developer accounts are approved all the time.
Not mine! So "all the time" is as false as it gets. No one communicated to me that I need to provide certain information or details!! pure radio silence. So let's be factual.
>> when it comes to bugs, which seems to be your main concern, there is a lot you can do without a developer account.
Bugs **and** feature requests are my main concern.

I sense some hostility here which I don't appreciate.
>> A developer account, the kind of account that gives contributors full access to GitLab, gives the power to do a lot of damage too.
That sounds very wrong. All PRs (in case of Gitlab MRs) should be ultimately approved, so I cannot see why your Gitlab is vulnerable where as all other instances of Gitlab, the Github and all instances of Forgejo are nor susceptible these "damages"!

Thanks for your invitation, then I cordially and officially invite you accept the KDE Invent (Gitlab) access which I requested months and months ago.
It is not right to randomly throw such messages and accuse people of not contributing when the contribution is locked behind a login screen that needs approval and the access is never given. I mean you can, but it is, unethical and unfriendly.
For now all I could contribute is by donating money (check the records, it's public).
@Bro666
Those are bugs reports and feature requests for all KDE applications including plasma and also including Kate, Yakuake, Konsole, Kmail, rkward ...
Not complaining here, but none of the bugs I ever reported or I'm following were addressed. To me this sounds like a good place to focus on, because these are issues that the community have faced or the suggestions they have come up with.

>> Why not start there? All you need is an account on bugs.kde.org and you will also revive bugs that may have flown under the radar and contribute to getting them sorted once and for all.
As mentioned before, I have already done that. it is all public information and you can go and check.
