It looks like GFS is still on #gnome 49 at the moment. I know there's a lot more in GFS than I bother to package up for gnome, but I have to assume it won't be long until it's updated over there. We've talked a bit over the past few days, and I'm pretty sure he's where I am with it as well, so those who wait for packages, it shouldn't be much longer on x86_64 systems.

The screen res on this old macbookpro isn't large enough to get more data onscreen but here's #gnome 50.0 running on #slackware.
Since last week, I've been using the vanilla Ubuntu #GNOME interface full-time for the first time since 2018 (I use #KDE #Plasma and it's the best!). It has evolved and improved nicely since I last tried it, but it still has SO MANY papercuts. The most egregious of those is the frequent "<application> is ready" notifications for various applications and windows you want to come to the foreground but don't. I had to find a maintained extension option to "fix" this https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/5410/grand-theft-focus/
Grand Theft Focus - GNOME Shell Extensions

GNOME 50 llega con mejoras importantes en rendimiento, experiencia de usuario y accesibilidad: activa por defecto el soporte para tasa de refresco variable (VRR) y escalado fraccional, añade aceleración por GPU para escritorio remoto, amplía los controles parentales con límites de uso y horarios, e incorpora ajustes como indicador de perfil de energía y opción de reducir animaciones. Las aplicaciones principales también mejoran, junto con múltiples optimizaciones, correcciones y pequeños refinamientos en todo el sistema.

Why Ubuntu 26.10 Might Drop ZFS, RAID & Encryption Support

The proposal calls for stripping out filesystem drivers and other features.

It's FOSS

Okay this is sweet, got keyboard navigation nailed down for my Outliner.

This is my spirtual successor to Bonsai and Shadow Outline on Palm OS.

I continuously jump between wanting to set-up #emacs to do everything and using separate apps for every task.

I am fully convinced that emacs setup will be the most efficient one, but will take time to do it.

But #GNOME apps are also too beautiful to pass on :(

@haeckerfelix, I read every blog post, as I love it how thebcomunity highlights celebrates cool and interesting GNOME developments and people contributing with their projects and/or ideas.

Thanks and keep showing us all the cool projects!

#opensuse, arrived #gnome 50. Зараз потикаю, що там наробили.
