Weired Things Going on in KDE-verse?

Hi,

If it wasn't affecting me (and tons of other people) and if these were separate incidents, I wouldn't believe. But now I am getting suspicious. Very suspicious. Foll me once?

So what happened:

First, KDE removed support of Alliance for Open Media AVIF (SDDM, Login, Wallpaper, Gwenview, Dolphin…),;
Second KDE removed support for ALL RAW types of files (Sony ARW, Nicon NEF, and so on) - Gwenview ;
Third KDE removed support for photos in Okular (epub files are missing photos, e.g.. tutorials and screenshots in  PCLinuxOS Magazine are useless now without photos, contrary mupdf, mupdf-gl is displaying photos fine)

Don't tell me that someone isn't being paid by MS there in KDE e.v. What is going on?

Okular uses the ebook-tools backend for epubs. ebook-tools has not been updated for 11 years. Use something else for epubs with lots of images created since 2012.
