Fancy winning a Linux laptop?

Fancy winning a swanky new Linux laptop? Well if you put your creative skills to work, you might!

The KDE community is running two new community competitions, both of which tout Tuxedo-branded hardware as main prizes.

Videographers are encouraged to take part in the KDE Plasma 5.18 Video Competition where two Linux PCs are up for grabs.

The creator of the best promotional video about KDE Plasma will net themselves a Tuxedo Gaming PC, while the creator of the best promotional video showcasing KDE applications will receive a Tuxedo InfinityBox.
