GNOME 50 Tokyo arrives for Linux

GNOME 50, codenamed Tokyo, is now rolling out to Linux distributions with a long list of practical improvements. From new parental controls and accessibility upgrades to faster file management and smoother Wayland performance, this release focuses on refining the desktop experience rather than reinventing it.

@SecurityWriter good question.

Pretty shure @ubuntu / #UbuntuLTS is emulating that on it's #GnomeDesktop.

Worst-case there's some Gnome extension to copy #macOS Workspace behaviour.
- Just like there's #WinTile for using Super-Key based shortcuts (which were introduced with #WindowsVista) like Super+Tab and Super+Arrow-Keys to quickly switch between Application #Windows and arrange them on the screen without needing to use the mouse entirely...

Anyone using #asahiLinux (and #gnomeDesktop, not sure if relevant) know how to tell the OS "never sleep/suspend when on power"? #fediHelp #linux #macbookpro

@HeliaXyana when people ask me what Linux to try, I always recommend #LinuxMint or #Fedora. They are my top choices because they are community-run not corporate owned, and they are both extremely well designed, they both have lots of software in their package repositories, they come with everything a new user could ever need in an operating system already built-in, and (most of all) are both ridiculously stable and predictable, to a degree that you wouldn’t have thought possible of a computer operating system.

By the way, to make LinuxMint look and feel like as “pretty” as Fedora, it’s just one command: sudo apt-get install task-gnome-desktop, then logout and login again. Done.

To make Fedora look and feel as “ugly” LinuxMint, it’s just one command: sudo dnf install @cinnamon-desktop, then logout and login again. Done.

But personally, I find #CinnamonDE to be beautiful, it is my daily driver.
