A new release of #Multiplex, the app that lets you watch torrents together in a way similar to Apple's SharePlay and Amazon's Prime Video Watch Party, is out!
This brings the latest and greatest #GNOME and #libadwaita technologies, modernizes the underlying dependencies, enhances accessibility, and makes it easier to contribute to the project with improved contributor documentation and a rewrite of the UI markup!
And more is to come soon-ish, so stay tuned 🥳
Rejoice! GNOME 47.Beta is released!

ported Identity and Video Trimmer to the new css stuff (well, ported is a strong word, there's like 10 lines of css there), so now Video Trimmer is ready for accent colors!
(yeah yeah i know that window needs a design overhaul but for now im too lazy)

I've proposed a merge request to GNOME's likely new Video Player app codenamed Showtime. The feature? Toggling between video duration and time remaining by clicking the end timestamp. :)
It's the little things!
I think this might be my first contribution to a GNOME Python app. It was a bit of a trip coming from Vala and JavaScript land, but I _think_ I did okay for a first pass.

Question for you high-contrast theme users.
I recently started an initiative in @gnome Design to standardize drag & drop overlays in entire windows and predominant views. I would really appreciate it if you could criticize / give feedback on the high-contrast variants of the overlay:

Fractal 8 Released: The Linux Matrix Messaging App Gets Better!
A new upgrade has landed for Matrix users!Sourav Rudra (It's FOSS News)
I was like “LOL gnome feels the same about Lunduke as I do!” and then they were dicks about it - upholding gnome’s reputation also, I suppose.
So what if some new member posts a link to Lunduke article not knowing about some unwritten rule… and they get banned? Yeah that’s rubbish. Write your rule down somewhere FFS. This will scare off new or unaware users.
Hell, until recently I wasn’t even aware that others disliked the guy as much as I do. The most info I got on him being disliked came from his own articles, which was amusingly helpful.

This one is for all the Local RSS enjoyers out there:
- use etags to skip downloading unchanged feeds
- avoid writing unchanged RSS 2.0 feeds to disk (feed-rs fix)
- handle articles that are published by multiple feeds with the exact same GUID (e.g. planet gnome)
My MR which implements a new image mounting dialog for #GNOME Disks in #Rust has been merged 🎉
The new dialog allows not only to mount and view disk images, but also to edit, inspect, write or, if the disk image is already mounted, unmount it.
Thanks to @tbernard for the design and to @pothos for the review and help.
So thanks to @rmader@mastodon.social we managed to get the front camera in the Pixel 3a working with a libcamera/pipewire stack 🥳 Thanks to @flamingradian for the work on the whole port!
EDIT: The driver does not properly release the camera when closing the app, so it only works once per boot. It would be lovely if anybody with the skills would like to contribute to improve it!
