Fisch , in Resources 1.5, a system monitoring application, has been released
@Fisch@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

I'm currently using Mission Center, which is also really good. One of these should replace GNOME's system monitor tho because it honestly kind of sucks.

I'd call gnome system monitor good enough but out of place from a layout perspective. Its looked the same for as long as I can remember

I also personally don't like the mission center layout as much. It feels like they copied Windows for no good reason. However, that's just a personal preference

Yeah, I find it really nice to use but I experience a lag spike when I open Mission Center.. so that's a bit annoying.

toynbee ,

Thanks!

d_k_bo , in This Extension Adds a Progress Bar to GNOME Shell Media Controls

This feels like something that could be integrated into GNOME Shell itself

It definitely should be. I thought that the API just didn't support it but apparently it does.

lemmy_99c4zb3e3 , in Meet Showtime, GNOME’s Promising New Video Player
@lemmy_99c4zb3e3@reddthat.com avatar

I have now three different video players. Sometimes something glitches and doesn't play anything - no audio or black screen! Then I try another player, and voilà, it works. Maybe it's my Fedora fault? But I don't think so because every app I use is a Flatpak package. For now, the best of all is VLC; it works 99.9% of the time. Showtime looks very clean, similar to Clapper, but what matters most is whether it actually works or not. I don't need another video player that has problems with playing videos. Ideally, I just want only one player.

I had MPV, Celluloid and VLC. After using showtime and trying a bunch of formats, I uninstalled MPV and Celluloid. I also set it as default too (loves the adwaita UI ). VLC is just there as a backup.

loves the adwaita UI

Yeah, it looks nice, but as I supposed it's completely garbage right now. It can't open subtitles correctly and I don't understand English or Japanese vocals ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°). And also, there is some hesitation when jumping from place to place. I'll come back when it exits alpha or even beta.

Bishma , in Track Time Differently with 'Day Progress' for GNOME Shell
@Bishma@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

I follow one of the year progress bots on mastodon, and it's proven to be a minor existential crisis machine.

"What do you mean the year is 40% over!? I haven't gotten anything done!!! I need to let 4 hours disappear playing KSP to calm down a little..."

DmMacniel , in Hello World!

But why not host your own blog, so that there isn't a paywall from which you don't get any benefits from?

There is an other video of the oneplus 6t which really looks smooth:

I really look forward when Gnome for mobile will be stable 💓

@independantiste@sh.itjust.works avatar

Wow!!! When I tried it a few months ago on my OP6 it wasn't nearly as smooth as this. In the replies of the linked post there is a link to a patch that adds better scheduling for the UI from 2 months ago. So cool to see it is now smooth enough to be used

TheGrandNagus , in GNOME 47 Can Now Be Built With X11 Support Disabled

This is great news

dan , in GNOME Papers Document Viewer Making Progress As GTK4-Based Evince Fork
@dan@sffa.community avatar

It's much slower than Evince

Sentau , (edited )

Yeah. Scrolling(amount of scroll per turn of the scroll wheel/swipe on touchpad) has been intentionally slowed down. Another issue is when you scroll fast, the scrolling is stuttery because papers tries to render on the fly when scrolling. There is an open issue to discuss whether this should be the behaviour or not.

But don't worry too much. It was much slower a month ago and yet progress is being made at a great pace and hence I expect it to get better in the near future. Pablo Correa Gomez(the lead dev of Papers) is doing some great work.

vbb ,
@vbb@lemmy.world avatar

Scroll speed will still be lower in papers because of changes in gtk.

Sentau ,

Oh ok. Are these changes tailored towards making touchscreen usage better¿?

vbb ,
@vbb@lemmy.world avatar

I think it was done to make code overall nicer: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/merge_requests/4508#note_1416720

That was an incredibly poised and informative response by Carlos. Thanks for linking it. Cheers

Vash63 , in Mousam -A beautiful GNOME weather app

Very pretty sample screens, will have to give it a try

kellenoffdagrid , in Accent colors for GNOME has been merged!
@kellenoffdagrid@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

Not to be dramatic, but I think this means it's finally the year of the Linux desktop /s

Glad GNOME finally got this finished, it's good to finally have most of the major desktops on the same page with the freedesktop accent color support.

ebits21 , (edited ) in 'Tiling Shell' Brings Advanced Window Snapping to Gnome
@ebits21@lemmy.ca avatar

Tried it after reading the article. I’m used to using tiling assistant.

It’s nice but, man I also would like some keyboard shortcuts!

Edit: Suggested shortcuts on GitHub and the dev is already working on it 😎

@possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip avatar

I want one

However, 200-300 USD is hard to justify for a toy

rorschah , in GNOME tablet support papercut fixes
@rorschah@lemdro.id avatar

Gnome 47 will be a massive upgrade for sure. And everything I have read are only improvements and not regressions.Many of generally unnoticed ones like in the area of accessibility, thanks to STF.
