Logged into a Teams meeting a few minutes ago and the Manjaro KDE toolbar says "Skype is using the microphone" and I feel like I've learned something dark and forbidden.

Federico, GNOME Co-Founder and Board of Directors member, shared his GNOME story with us. In his story, he talks about valuable lessons learned building and contributing to #GNOME and #opensource.

“People in GNOME genuinely care about each other; and I am thankful for all of the friendships that have come about through GNOME.”

I like how GTK is moving forward with GPU acceleration and providing #Rust bindings, but the documentation and about everything else is seriously lacking.

Awesome news for the @PINE64 #PineTime ecosystem : #Amazfish is running on my x86 desktop computer and is connected to #InfiniTime : connection, notifications and music control features are working well!

#Amazfish is the first ever companion app for #PineTime #InfiniTime that runs on a "desktop" Linux and... on the #PinebookPro AND the #Pinephone!!!

I run @manjarolinux and @ManjaroARM on these devices, BTW ;)

And it takes way too long and too much effort to make things that can work for people and in a healthy way. Like by default, you have to harm or infringe on one's autonomy (which is a form of harm!) and it legit makes me question $THINGS
