I contributed to GNOME Shell! It's just a one-liner, but still, it's a contribution!

I added touchpad gestures so you can now change workspaces not just with a 3-finger swipe, but also a 4-finger swipe (or any amount of fingers larger than that, if you're feeling really adventurous).

We badly want tiling, and have wanted it for a while, but it's not a trivial problem.

See @tbernard 's post on Rethinking Window Management for more.

I've read it here already, so chances are you did as well. It is true: I will make Papers – the soon-to-be default document viewer in GNOME – work on mobile, while improving the UI in general.

I'm granted a stipend to work on Papers – together with my mentor @pabloyoyoista. We looked into some things today, already.

I'm excited to make Linux on Mobile a viable alternative for more people. But probably you knew that already, from my other involvements.

GNOME would be nothing without its community. Thanks a lot for contributing to make GNOME great @camelCaseNick @pabloyoyoista

The performance improvement in the Files app is fantastic (particularly, opening a directory with many entries is almost instant now). Thanks to whoever fixed that 🙏

Shout out to @antoniof for maintaining and simplifying Files, and @nekohayo for doing a lot of glue work across projects. That’s A LOT of seemingly invisible work from you two that has a huge impact on GNOME.

Thank you 💙

If a desktop environment follows you, would you feel the obligation to try it?

Like its almost as if this was meant to be, it looks similar to MacOS which I use atm... spooky

gnome,
@gnome@floss.social avatar

@ultrasquid @dansup a small tip people appreciate on desktop is holding the super key and scrolling with your mouse.

You can use it to switch between workspaces without depending on trackpad gestures 💡
