Gajim is currently migrating from GTK3 to GTK4. 🔧 GTK is Gajim's user interface toolkit. It provides building blocks, like windows, buttons and labels. 🧩
Version 4 of this toolkit brings performance improvements to Gajim, e.g. faster rendering of user interface elements. 💨
Additionally, switching to GTK4 allows Gajim to use newer widgets, like nice drop downs.
Here is a quick peek at a new group chat "@ mention" widget. 😎
Stay tuned!

Next version of Upscaler will have the option to scale images between 2x and 4x :)

I upgraded #GNOME #Calls to #gtk4 + #libadwaita for fun. It's now released in v47.0! Should be available soon in your #LinuxMobile distribution of choice 🚀
Massive thanks to @devrtz, @agx, @brainblasted, and Maximiliano for putting up with my beginner-level GTK skills!

Libadwaita: Splitting GTK and Design Language
Recently, the Linux Mint Blog published Monthly News – April 2024, which goes into detail about wanting to fork and maintain older GNOME apps in collaboration with other GTK-based desktop environments.TheEvilSkeleton
What I really like about #GNOME46 is that it turned out to be a great release for old and low-end devices. One of my test devices is Thinkpad T400. That hardware is over 15 years old and actually got faster over the last few years - especially this release.
One of my favorite improvements here, headed by Christian Hergert, was the boost to VTE. Terminals using #gtk4 are now much faster and responsive. I mean, damn, even switching tabs doesn't trigger a full redraw!
Friends of energy efficiency - the Light Video 0.1.0 #Flathub update is out, build with #gtk4 4.14 and #GStreamer 1.24.1.
This should be the first app targeting the #linux / FDO desktop enabling Wayland video offloading (think zero-copy playback) by default. In many cases (actually more than I expected) this can improve battery lifetime - and on low-end devices even playback performance - significantly.

I'll also be at #fosdem and do a short talk about #Wayland video offloading related stuff I've been posting about, featuring #gtk4, #gstreamer, #Chromium #gnomeshell and #weston

See you there!
So I've been working with GTK4/Libadwaita in Python (in Flatpak), and I'm trying to get notifications to work.
I keep getting this error: "gi.repository.GLib.GError: g-io-error-quark: Error calling StartServiceByName for org.freedesktop.Notifications: Timeout was reached (24)"
Am I missing Flatpak overrides? (Docs seem to say no docs.flatpak.org/en/latest/por… )
Am I doing this wrong? (Code at github.com/TheKrafter/Grouping… )

In a previous thread I wrote about YUV support in Mutter having made its way into #gnome45 (floss.social/@rmader/111142297…). Recently #gtk4 devs picked things up and implemented compositor offloading, see their nice blog post: floss.social/@GTK/111415523629…
Regarding the future of video playback in #gnome I'd like to add some more context around current developments in #gnomeshell, #gtk4 and #Wayland in a short 🧵
TL;DR: by making use of more modern hardware features we're finally in the position to catch up to other platforms with regards to energy efficiency. So let's do it!
Are you interested in working on GNOME, writing Rust apps, or working with Fonts? If so, you may be interested in taking a look at gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-f… :)
This port may take a while, and I greatly appreciate any help available. I've laid out a list of tasks to be done before merging, and if anyone wants to take something on let me know and we can work together.
If you want to help with the effort, please join #fonts:gnome.org on Matrix :) (matrix.to/#/#fonts:gnome.org)

This is an initial port of Fonts to Rust. The port doesn't do much - it just loads a list of fonts and displays it. There's a lot...GitLab
Ever wondered how the #GTK4 file picker looks without #libadwaita? Take a look at Transmission. Click on the Open button and it should open the GTK4 file picker without libadwaita.

I wasn't really aware of the sad state of #accessibility with #GTK4 and #Gnome in upcoming #Debian 12 #bookworm.
#visuallyImpaired and #blind users are probably disappointed. Let's hope, those users can use #MATE for now and things will improve before the release of Debian 13 #trixie.
Tangram 2.0 is out and available on #Flathub
• Ported to #GTK4 / #libadwaita
• Responsive/mobile UI
• New and clearer onboarding experience
• Improved Web performance
• Follow system light/dark theme
Thank you to everyone involved in the GTK4 port of WebKit ♥️

Say hello to Tally for Plausible, a rebrand of my Plausible app to better differentiate it from Plausible Analytics itself!
The app supports:
• Your dashboard from Plausible.io
• Custom domains
• A refreshed design
• Cross-desktop light/dark style
• A more app-like experience
• Theoretically, phones!*
Grab it now from Flathub:

*If you have a Linux phone and want to test Tally, I’d love to see what it looks like.
