Support for Windows 10 ends on October 14, 2025. Microsoft wants you to buy a new computer. But what if you could make your current one fast and secure again?
Check out the End of 10 initiative to learn more! If you know anyone else who might find this useful, share it with them!
Fra esattamente 6 mesi sarà la fine di #Windows10 (#endOf10) :morte:
Cercasi aiuto per tradurre l'apposito sito :it: per passare al #SoftwareLibero!

🚀 GNOME 48 is on its way to Fedora 42 and Ubuntu 25.04!
But why wait? If you’re as excited as we are, you can try it out right now in a virtual machine with GNOME OS!
👉 Try GNOME 48 today: https://os.gnome.org/
Finally took some time to polish and publish Eloquent.
It's a proofreading assistant, that works fully offline; powered by LanguageTool.
@KekunPlazas @sonny awesome :BlobhajHeart: was thinking about building this exact app, but ended up using languagetool inside the browser
What an incredible week! Shell notification grouping, Mutter triple buffering - and so much more! 🥳
Check out the latest issue of #ThisWeekInGNOME!

Iteration is the cornerstone of good design, but sometimes things go out of hand :) I'm really happy we finally rolled out the new https://www.gnome.org
I'm now convinced using the GHC* framework will enable us to focus on updating the content rather than the framework/infrastructure. Thank you everyone involved in making this happen!
* gitlab, HTML, CSS.
@arazil This doesn't need any changes from the application side, so yes it works with the new portal version.
@razze Yes, the grouping is linked to the app id/desktop file id. There are options where apps could use different dekstop file ids to control the grouping, but this still need work and discussion.
Friday night?
Perfect time to drop a blog post that might sound like clickbait, but that I genuinely hope can help forge a path forward while making everyone happy—or at least pissing everyone off equally (sometimes the best you can ask for!)

Edit: lol it’s Thursday night. I should go to bed.
Edit ×2: comments enabled; reply publicly here and it’ll show on the post as well. ✨
Edit ×3: I’ve revised the post based on feedback
Finally got the notification grouping merged into GNOME Shell. You should expect it in GNOME 48 🎉
The demo on android works pretty damn well. Kodos to who did the work.
@marting @mclasen rerun the ci job https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/jobs/4723973/artifacts/browse/apks/org.gtk.Demo4/

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!

Gosh I wish we could use a modern text-to-voice model like this for the screen reader in #GNOME
I've so far been using Folio for my note taking. It was more stable than Paper it derives from, but is strictly local. That becomes a problem when you have to wield more machines.
Iotas looks more pleasant (subjective) and goes for the explicit markdown view rather than combining presentation and editing like Folio. Much prefer that. But most of all, allows to sync between machines if you have Nextcloud instance available. So far it looks very neat.
Looks like it would be pretty easy to build an office suite that follows the GNOME HIG.
I recently figured out there is a LibreOffice tiled render that can be embedded into GTK, there is even a prototype in core of LibreOffice.
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.

Transnational hacking and FOSS bonding in action! Family trip brought me across the Atlantic, but got a chance to meet @pan and bring a FairPhone for development. It's amazing when we can not only hack, but also meet and enjoy the human part of it :)
