Keypunch – Apps for GNOME

Cool to see this new effort by @npub1ccl7...r0dy! There's way too much misinformation out there as a result of the general disconnect between developers and free software "media". Kudos for seizing the means of communication o/

Kudos to @Jakub Steiner ⭐ for finally getting the new homepage over the line!

GNOME

An easy and elegant way to use your computer

The Disks GTK4/Libadwaita port landed in GNOME OS Nightly, looking fantastic 🙌

In the same way that GNOME Circle is a developer education initiative disguised a verification program, Flathub is a metadata quality initiative disguised as an app store 😏

Thanks everyone for coming out for Unboiling The Ocean 3 at @offline last night, despite the public transport strike! Unfortunately due to the strike a lot of people couldn't make it, so we'll probably have another similar event in the future. But we did have a great discussion anyway, focused on use cases and threat models for collaborative text editors like Aardvark. Some highlights below 👇 Full meeting notes (taken in Aardvark during the meeting 😎):

Unboiling The Ocean 3 - HedgeDoc

We're starting off the new year with an exciting new edition of Unboiling The Ocean! Join us for a discussion about peer-to-peer UX and threat models. We have some special guests and questions to discuss, but mostly the plan is to have an open discussion around these topics to inform the design and development of the Aardvark text editor project. Join us on Monday January 27 at 19:00 at @offline in Neukölln! #p2panda #aardvark #gnome #berlin

PSA: I'm stepping down from putting together an STF application for 2025. Reflecting on our experiences with the STF project last year, I no longer think the GNOME Foundation is a good venue to organize development collectively. Even if the Foundation's current issues are fixed, we've seen how risky it is to centralize development in a single structure. My hope is that we'll learn from this and find more sustainable, decentralized ways of organizing going forward.
