I might start daily driving GNOME OS soon… but not how you’d expect. 👀

- GDM trying to log in with the fingerprint reader I've never set up, such that I get warnings and a time limit on typing my password
- Creation of thumbnails on image files only happening if I have Files open in the folder where the image is created as it is created
- Loading desktop backgrounds in Settings is pretty slow

I'm so embarrassed! I've kept my listing on https://pad.gnome.org/s/summer-of-gnomeos mostly up to date. But others have not. I've seen all the activity in the #GnomeOS Matrix! And today was the last day? And now it looks like I'm in 3rd place!? I could even be second, depending if there's some more issues I should count (depending how you interpret the rules)!? Which is obviously not correct! I've just daily driven and made issues, I haven't fixed or MR'd anything! Please update your listing I'm so 🫣 #gnome

Installed GNOME OS on my primary laptop today!

Although I had to install Windows first to update TPM firmware 😅. It's amazing how fast GNOME OS installs in contrast to Windows.

Windows 11 -> 17 minutes
GNOME OS -> 4 minutes

Thanks to Pika Backup, I'm up and running within 2 hours 😄

I use GNOME OS, BTW (soon)

Can you see when I started daily driving Gnome OS?

Yesterday, I attempted to install GNOME OS on my PC, but it seems that the partitioning feature is still a work in progress. I would prefer if the partitioning process could be automated to accommodate multiple storage devices.

Additionally, it appears that I need to format the disk using the Disks utility while in live mode to access my storage devices.

I look forward to using it soon.

I found the first one!! Abderrahim's #GNOMEOS phone! #GUADEC2025
#GnomeOS was fun to play around with. I was thinking of installing it on my lappy, but it lacks the ability to easily install drivers (need broadcom drivers for wifi).

So now I am trying out #PikaOS, a gamer oriented #Debian #Sid based distro; specifically I am trying out there #Niri edition. So far things look pretty cool out of the box.
On my way to one of the best conferences of the year! Get all your devices with #GNOMEOS ready! :) #GUADEC2025
