For anyone following the systemd precomplance with insane wanna laws and wanna be laws it actually stems from this PR for flatoak xdg-portal. https://github.com/flatpak/xdg-desktop-portal/pull/1922

We must push back on this precompliance with political over each and increasingly privacy invasive, and frankly short sighted, regulations.

Draft: Add parental controls to the Accounts portal by davidedmundson Β· Pull Request #1922 Β· flatpak/xdg-desktop-portal

What Linux applications has implemented the FreeDesktop/XDG background portal feature?

Any torrent clients? Any apps at all actually fully supports it yet?

#Linux #FreeDesktop #XDG #XDGportal #BackgroundPortal

wl-mirror will soon support XDG Portal screencasts and thus KDE and Gnome!

With all of the talk around explicit sync I tried to test the old broken xdg-portal branch again and apparently it now works?!

I plan on cleaning this up soon so that wl-mirror finally works on other compositors.

#wlmirror #xdgportal #pipewire #kde #gnome

Just gave #Firefox with #PipeWire / #libcamera / #xdgportal support a go on my #PinePhonePro. Works pretty well apart from missing rotation support and UI issues on small screens.

It currently requires "media.webrtc.camera.allow-pipewire" to be set to "true" in "about:config". Other then that the same requirements like for other apps like Snapshot, Authenticator and Decoder apply: a working Pipewire/libcamera/xdg-portal setup (IMO this should be left to distros/images).
