Thanks for the heads-up. I've opened
https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-welcome/-/merge_requests/44 to try
to fix this.

In the new ‘Welcome’ app, there’s a long, multi-line string that begins with
the text ‘KDE Connect lets you integrate your phone with your computer in
various ways:’

However, in the corresponding POT file (plasma-welcome.pot), only the first
line of the string is present. And if we translate it, the translation is not
being used (as it doesn’t match the original string).
The string in the .qml file was added in 2022, and the POT file last updated
2023-01-19, so it doesn’t seem to be a case of an outdated POT file.
The .qml file uses a normal xi18nc() call, which looks correct. Any ideas
what’s causing the problem?
(assing plasma-devel in CC):
I suspect, but please others correct me, this may be related to the handling
of strings in Javascript/QML, as previously discussed here:
https://phabricator.kde.org/D24073 and https://phabricator.kde.org/T11721
If that's the case, the strings should be reformatted accordingly, either as a
long string on a single line, or using the format:
i18n("foo \
bar \
baz")
Ciao
