Is Totem (Gnome Videos) still maintained? As per https://apps.gnome.org/Totem/ latest version is 43 from 2022. Is it going to be removed from Gnome Core apps or replaced with something new?

Is #PopOS_COSMIC serious!?!? I used to love #Pop_OS back in the day when they used a near stock Gnome DE. I never liked the way Pop!_OS worked against the upstream and how outdated that distribution is nowadays. But Cosmic is so ugly and forcing the themes on apps that explicitly beg you not to do so is just insane. I wouldn't mind if apps had a check to see if they are ran on Cosmic and just segfault if so.

Oof I switched over to Gnome for a bit (like, a minute or two) and then back to KDE and going back to KDE felt like travelling back in time in a bad way, in terms of how the UI is designed 😔

KDE has much, much better UX, but Gnome is just so pretty 😭

I just want to give a big shout out to the @gnome guys they really do have the best designers in the game. It's really a joy to use Gnome and it's effortless to develop good looking apps with gtk/libadwaita (although not the easiest framework to use and it lacks any third party resources)

What does your development environment look like right now?

(IDE/Text Editor? Terminal Multiplexer? Package Manager? Shell? Programming Language? Containerization? Command Runner? Terminal Emulator?)

This is the first time I've used Files' bulk renaming, and it's neat! Very useful that it can extract some MP3 metadata as well.

Leap Day this year came with a new and shiny #Vivaldi release, including the ability to have extensions work in panels! I'm still waiting for @Vivaldi to give me the pretty version of RSS feeds in a panel, but I'm willing to wait.

We’ve reduced the price of our B-stock Factory Seconds systems and now have a Framework Laptop 13 barebones configuration available for under $500 for the first time.

This is the i7-1165G7 model, so it has healthy performance too. Our Factory Seconds systems come without memory and storage, so to reduce the all-in price, we’re making refurbished DDR4 available at half the price of new.

Great news: Thanks to recent @flathub changes, adaptive Flathub apps are now actually shown as that in GNOME Software! Previously they were all marked as desktop-only. You'll start seeing this more and more as apps update 😁️

@BrodieOnLinux I've been watching some videos of yours (great work by the way) but there is one thing I really don't understand. Why do you think rootfull xwayland is going to preserve old x11 window managers. I know you can technically run them in rootfull, but I don't see why anyone would? You can't run Wayland apps inside rootful xwayland, as it stands it's just an extra step to get basically an existing xorg session, or something that acts like a virtual machine, why would you ever do that?

Print proofs of every Framework Laptop 13 keyboard language in the production pipeline. (Again, proofs, NOT the final).

breadly, 3 months ago to GNOME

One (kinda minor tho) thing I still dont like about #Gnome is it's handling of cursors.
On Plasma/KWin, when the system is on load, most of the UI components and more importantly the pointer will stay responsive no matter what.
On Gnome/Mutter, since my hardware is low-end (Celeron N4000 and Intel UHD 600), when the desktop or an opened application is doing anything a little heavy, the cursor will goes "E-E-Errrr-Errrr" giving you the sensation of the system starting to stutter like hell… But in fact it's not because the rest of the system is still responsive.
The user experience is kinda "meh" on this side.

I think Linux/Wayland, especially on mobile, really misses a universal back button/gesture, something like Android has. Every app has to implement their own version and on Gnome specifically it's usually a button on the top left, the farthest away from where your hand is if you're right handed. It's a similar problem to what iPhones have and one of the reasons i prefer Android over iOS.
