      Dropping X11 seems huge.

          Removing technical debts cannot be overestimated.

      Yeah forge is what I use too and it’s definitely a little clunky. PaperWM was decent last time I tried it too (but still a little clunky)

      Mosaicwm is great, even if still on early development.

      That is likely to come now that they have removed all support for X11. Apparently the legacy code was preventing properly integrating a tiling system.

      not much changed

      Except for removing 40% of the code base in this release.

    I can’t for the life of me get used to Gnome on my desktop. I tried so many times, but I always get the feeling of using a tablet.

    I like the concept, but it’s simply a laptop or tablet centered DE, at best.

      Do you use any extensions? I hated Gnome when I first started using Linux but now I prefer it over alternatives.

      My extensions

      The reason why Gnome doesn’t feel at home with a mouse is because it’s keyboard-centric which also works for touch gestures as a result of their convergence efforts.

      It is a change in workflow for sure (mouse-centric > keyboard-centric), but once understood it is, I’m, much faster than the alternative.

    I fucking love Gnome over any other DE. I do hate how they try to fucking block using flameshot, otherwise, best distro in the linux world.

      unfortunately flameshot uses some wlroots extensions that no DEs seem to use , I have a ton of window rules attempting to work around it on plasma

        Yeah, going around with that hackaton to make it work is a real PITA. Unfortunately, that’s the most enticing screen shot app in existence, in my opinion. I ended up just using the Gnome SC app and making it open satty to edit and then decide to copy or save. It does the job, requires very little tweaking, but it’s certainly not flameshot.

      Isn’t flameshot deprecated?

      In any case it is not surprising since GNOME is moving towards full Wayland on this update too, the project expects all devs to focus exclusively on Wayland now.

      I’ve been very happy with Gradia for screenshots.

        Oh my God, thank you so much. That looks awesome. I’ll certainly take it for a spin.

        As for flameshot, I’m not sure, but last I heard it was still being developed and maintained.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
