In which I talk about the current plans for gobject-introspection and GLib.
If you work on language bindings, and/or packaging glib, you should reach out to the GLib maintainers.
Fun fact: The XDG desktop portal for GNOME mobile is not adaptive, despite Nautilus being Adaptive (Nautilus is still not yet perfect on mobile but it's getting there)

Resources is a modern interface for managing your system's processes and your open applications. See what programs you have running, and kill the apps that are wasting resources. If you want to see if that helped, you can view the usage graphs for your processor, memory, GPU and more. With Resources, keeping your system in check has never been easier!

Frog is such a neat little Linux desktop app to extract text from images.
You can give it an image (file selector, drag & drop) or let it take a screenshot. And you can even paste an image from your clipboard!
This is great for adding alt text when posting an image or copying text (as text) from a screenshot for sharing (or adding to UI mockups, as I often do).
It also reads QR codes and supports several languages.

Interesting to see #gnome post about their #macOS CI builder issues the day after I posted a video about "understanding who your open source constituency is".
It's pretty clear that macOS users are not Gnome's constituency. Fine. But it also goes to show just how much #inkscape, #gimp and other Free Software downstream must also not be their constituency because we're so misaligned on this topic and there's no discussion about our relationship with gnome

The combination of rapidly-improving technologies like GNOME, Flatpak, Wayland, and Portals also means our active privacy protections are also better than ever before.
I went on to write:
>If and when we are able to develop an open, peer reviewed, industry-respected method of responsible and privacy-first telemetry, we may consider doing so.
While that post was in the context of elementary OS, I believe every word I wrote.
#Privacy #OpenSource #FreeSoftware #FOSS #FLOSS #GNOME #Flatpak
Read my colleague @wjt’s post covering the privacy-first system we have built into @EndlessOS, how it fits together, and why it exists.
blogs.gnome.org/wjjt/2023/07/0…
I hope this can serve as the beginning of the ecosystem coming together to solve this unique challenge in a way that is objectively superior than any proprietary system—all with privacy as the fundamental principle.
