Just upgraded to F41 & GNOME 47. It's actually a really nice improvement! Stuff feels more modern and consistent. Especially getting rid of gnome-terminal and moving to the new one (forget the cursed name).

WOW I'm glad I didn't vote for Deton
He's anti-wind lmao
"western mass is the future of renewable energy"
WHAT renewable energy in western mass?
That's not where the wind is!

Being real here, I chose GNOME apps by their logo. Like if it's a properly GNOME styled logo I know it will be conherent and probably modern and good.

I really enjoy purelymail. It's just reasonably priced and reliable email. Also mailspring is a fricken fantastic email client. Those combined are a pretty perfect email experience for me. (And FairMail on my phone)

Honestly the best part of GNOME is that I can just hit the super key and type in the name of an emoji and immediately have access to it. No more emoji pickers or web searches. Also it's super polished and consistent, but I digress.

6. Good point, I should both show the user's display name and handle for safety.

3. That's a bug! Thanks for catching that.
4. Good point on this, I should add more verbose error handling to the users. I'll make sure to add a snackbar to tell the users when something goes wront.
5. That's also likely a bug! I'll look into it.

1.Good point, I should specify you can use your handle or email.
2. There is a button to copy the seedphrase, but good point, I should make that entire page selectable.

More or less yeah! (More specially it's basically ipfs but with newer tech)

It is always a good felling when you royally bork something but you have backups.

The FUTO keyboard is fricken amazing. It can do live translating when dictating to your keyboard. Fully offline! I paid $5 for an android keyboard and couldn't be happier.

Gotta say, while google messages was neglected for about a decade, it finally feels like it's getting some dev effort. Unfortunately though, the moment Apple drops RCS and Google can run an ad campaign about how right they were the whole time, they will 100% drop the project and fire the whole team.

Perfect!

I guess I should really be running everything with --verbose to see what's going on.

Gotta say I have not been impressed by fdroidserver for builds in comparison to something like flatpak-bulider. It is soooooo slow to do anything. LIke I have had a build going for 15 minuets and... nothing.

Covalent @lukehmcc.com · Jul 20

I give up. I'm just gonna support flatpak. I have wasted too many hours on this.

I really forgot how annoying packaging for linux is
https://discourse.appimage.org/t/specify-required-glibc-version-in-appimage/2413/4
Like the whole point of appimages is to not have to deal with this... and I still can't get vup chat to run on fedora 30...

It's just so clean, fast, and good looking. GTK4 is just so nice.
