Made good progress this weekend on #IconBear , my upcoming open-source icon manager for Linux.
* Install pre-packaged icon sets to quickly start building your library.
* Icons are automatically categorised as "Outline", "Filled", "Duotone" or "Color" when you import them.
* Icons are loaded asynchronously, for improved performance.
Once work on importing, deleting and filtering sets is finished, I'll be looking to release the app 🙌

Towards a better way to hack and test your system components
Introduction Hey everyone, I recently joined Codethink and I am contributing to the improvements being made to GNOME OS, through the Sovereign Tech Fund (STF), to make it easier and more useful in day-to-day development and testing tasks, among othe…GNOME Discourse
The Rust+Gnome hackfest sponsored by gtk-rs (opencollective.com/gtk-rs) just ended, it allowed us to make great improvements like:
- rewrite the
clone!macro so it can now be formatted and have rust-analyzer run on it - rewrite rustdoc-stripper so it now uses rustc internal API directly and can be called with cargo. Some work remains to be done but it's already useable.
- finally finished the release blog post (we're months late but better late than never :p)
- lots of other cleanups and bugfixes

Showtime, the video player I'm developing for #GNOME has entered Incubator and is available on the GNOME Nightly repo for testing 
I'm hoping for it to replace Totem (Videos) in GNOME 48 and I will publish it on Flathub soon.

How fast can you type? Find out with my new app, Keypunch!
I've worked on this for the last couple of months, and it's finally out. Keypunch lets you practice your typing skills with automatically generated pseudo-text in your language of choice. Alternatively, you can supply it with your own text, such as song lyrics, Wikipedia articles, and quotes. Get ready to accelerate your typing speed!
Get it on Flathub: flathub.org/apps/dev.bragefugl…

Shout out to Text Pieces! I needed to URL-encode a big ugly string (creating a template form from URL parameters, yay!) and yep, sure enough, it made it stupidly easy.
The next time you need to encode, transform, or convert some text on Linux, reach for this pretty little offline app instead of pasting your data into some random website. 👍

As the #Nautilus team keeps making progress in refactoring and optimizing #GNOMEFiles, we can see #GNOME's file manager steadily becoming faster.
Among the few performance issues remaining, I believe the probable "Final Boss" of search performance is this issue, which would require some refactoring across the views. Anyone up for a challenge? gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilu…

It's not long until the 1st of June, so why not pick up the guitar and learn some catchy tunes for the summer? I've just published version 7.0 of Fretboard, which brings more accurate chord name prediction, note names on hover for the neck top toggles, and a couple of fixes for various small issues encountered since last release. It should be on Flathub very soon!

Huge thanks to @kabushawarib for eliminating the flickering that occurred in #GNOMEFiles 46's "Global Search" feature! This should help performance a bit, and improve #accessibility for light/motion-sensitive users.
If all goes well, the bugfix would probably make its way into #Nautilus 46.3, I presume.
