Introduction and Bug of the Month

[AnnoyingRains Games]

Hello, I am AnnoyingRains, a brand new contributor to KDE (and also new to
mailing lists).
I have been using KDE software (notably Plasma, Konsole, Dolphin, KDE
Partition Manager and Kwrite) on my laptop for over a year now (and loving
it), and I think now is finally time for me to give back to the community.

I found the gardening team on the "Get Involved" page, and when looking
through the things that the team does, I found Bug of the Month, a bug
fixing effort that hasn't been in place since 2015.
I suggest we bring this programme back into action.

I believe that a good Bug of the Month is a bug that not only affects a
large amount of people, but one that makes KDE look bad, or the developers
look lazy for not fixing it, and I believe we have a good contender for the
first bug of the month in over 6 years.

Bug 15329, (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15329), is a great
contender for this. The bug is over 22 years old, and can cause
seemingly-broken behaviour. If a new user sees this and attempts to find a
solution for this annoying issue, then they will find this ancient bug
report. People usually don't react to 22+ year old reports well, so this
may cause them to choose to use a competing product instead of KDEs, and
make KDE look bad.

I have no idea how to sign off an email to a mailing list, so I'll just cut
it off here.
