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!

You can follow the app's creator here: @nokyan

You can get the app on Flathub here: flathub.org/apps/net.nokyan.Re…

So, this is the simplest ssh-askpass for current #GNOME (make sure to have gcr 4 installed):
#!/usr/bin/gjs -m<br>import System from 'system';<br>import GLib from 'gi://GLib';<br>import Gcr from 'gi://Gcr?version=4';<br>const prompt = Gcr.SystemPrompt.open(-1, null);<br>prompt.set_message(ARGV.join(''));<br>const res = prompt.password(null);<br>if (!res) System.exit(-1);<br>print(res);<br>

Save into a file, chmod +x, set SSH_ASKPASS_REQUIRE=force and SSH_ASKPASS=path/to/prompt.js (where you saved it) when running ssh (and ssh-agent itself?), enjoy working GUI prompt that allows unlocking fido2 security keys when using agent-forwarding.

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

If you have experience maintaining a GitLab CI runner on macOS, and you wish to contribute to building and testing GLib and GTK on macOS, please join the GNOME Infrastructure channel to help maintaining the macOS server provided by the GNOME Foundation, otherwise we will have to retire it.

Potential retirement of the macOS CI builder for GLib and GTK

@dino 0.4.3 just got released with some exciting improvements for #LinuxMobile

1. Several fixes for touch input, making audio/video calls actually usable on phones
2. Fixes for video support so devices with #libcamera / #pipewire support like the #PinePhonePro work now
3. The app is now recognized as mobile friendly on #Phosh
4. Stricter #Flatpak sandbox - no device/all any more

The new version is available on #Flathub and lots of distro repos.

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)

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.

Read my colleague @wjt’s post covering the privacy-first system we have built into @EndlessOS, how it fits together, and why it exists.

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.
