Are windows full circles now? /s
It’s funny to me how enormous the radius is on window corners. It’s kind of hard for me to take it seriously.
Here I am on effectively Gnome 2 still. Love you MATE
I especially waited for the Parental control features to land in GNOME 50. Great to see they made it into the release. Now I don’t need aditional tools to enforce bedtime for my son.
Document annotations in the Document viewer is also a nice thing. But I would rather have proper Signing support via certificates for professional use cases.
It would be nice to see web filtering as part of it. A DNS like 1.1.1.3 can easily be bypassed.
I think that this should be done on the network level by providing a DNS Server via DHCP or include filtering in your router if you are afraid of users changing the DNS Server (but maybe it’s better to lock the network settings in this case).
But I see that not every User has the possibility or ability to do it this way. therefor having the option to do it in the OS is feasible for these users.
The Kerberos Auth for RDP sounds really nice. I cant wait to try that out
Love to see some accessibility improvements and the nautilus update is going to make handling my large folders a lot easier
I fucking love Gnome over any other DE. I do hate how they try to fucking block using flameshot, otherwise, best distro in the linux world.
unfortunately flameshot uses some wlroots extensions that no DEs seem to use , I have a ton of window rules attempting to work around it on plasma
The KDE screenshot application is super nice though, what does flameshot have that it doesn’t?
just personal preference, I like imgur upload because I use a social site or two that do not host any content in a cdn of their own. I’ve scripted my own upload in the past but it was unsatisfying
I really liked the built in light editing tools, they were a bit more advanced than the ones KDE provides. But I seem to be fine with KDE spectacle at the moment.
Yeah, going around with that hackaton to make it work is a real PITA. Unfortunately, that’s the most enticing screen shot app in existence, in my opinion. I ended up just using the Gnome SC app and making it open satty to edit and then decide to copy or save. It does the job, requires very little tweaking, but it’s certainly not flameshot.
I can’t for the life of me get used to Gnome on my desktop. I tried so many times, but I always get the feeling of using a tablet.
I like the concept, but it’s simply a laptop or tablet centered DE, at best.
Do you use any extensions? I hated Gnome when I first started using Linux but now I prefer it over alternatives.
My extensions
The reason why Gnome doesn’t feel at home with a mouse is because it’s keyboard-centric which also works for touch gestures as a result of their convergence efforts.
It is a change in workflow for sure (mouse-centric > keyboard-centric), but once understood it is, I’m, much faster than the alternative.
dudu hast😂
du hast mich
Honestly, not much changed since GNOME 40.
Is it a bad thing? No
Do I want more changes? Also no
The only thing missing from GNOME for me is proper dynamic tiling. I’m trying Forge extension, but it feels clunky
not much changed
Except for removing 40% of the code base in this release.
From a non techical user perspective.
I used unmodified GNOME 40 and 49 for a week. There were few changes, I could absolutely see myself using the older version and not missing much.
In my opinion GNOME 4X is as good as linux DEs get. I would like to see some popular extensions getting official support and native dynamic tiling, but besides that it’s hard to see room for improvement.
Removing X11 is a big deal, but most users won’t see it as such.
That is likely to come now that they have removed all support for X11. Apparently the legacy code was preventing properly integrating a tiling system.
Dropping X11 seems huge.
How many people were using X11 on GNOME?
Yes, it’s technically a huge change, but regular user won’t see a difference
Removing technical debts cannot be overestimated.
Did you ever use Material Shell?
Yeah forge is what I use too and it’s definitely a little clunky. PaperWM was decent last time I tried it too (but still a little clunky)
Mosaicwm is great, even if still on early development.
I must check it out, thanks
Headless remote desktop is nice as well
I am using Tiling Shell
Oh no.
