Very glad to see this soft fork of #LibAdwaita called #LibAdapta from the #LinuxMint folks! AFAICT, it adds theme support again. MATE and other projects using GTK will surely benefit. :flan_cool:​

Linux Mint 22.2 «Zara» presenta un nuevo tema predeterminado con estilo moderno #distros #diseño_moderno #gtk4 #interfaz_linux #libadwaita #linux_mint_22.2 #mint_y #nuevo_tema #zara

Does anyone know if systemwide #smoothscrolling or at least smooth scrolling for all #gtk4 #libadwaita apps is something that is being worked on for #gnome? 😎

#GNOME is replacing the outdated Totem video player with the modern Showtime in its upcoming release, GNOME 49.

This shift aligns with GNOME's focus on GTK4 and Libadwaita for a more intuitive user experience.

While Showtime lacks DVD playback, it offers a sleek, distraction-free design.

Not gonna lie, the new slightly colder colours in GNOME 48 are something you don't really notice until you open something still using the GNOME 47 runtime, and realise just how much nicer the newer palette is for what is, on paper, such a small difference.

#GNOME #libadwaita

@NostalgicKitsune I have to admit I had no idea what #Libadwaita was. I dont use this very often on my desktop and I only really use it for podcasts, but MusicPod has the option to add local music (and radio stations). You may know of it already of course but thought Id mention it seeing as you asked :) https://snapcraft.io/musicpod

Years ago, while searching for a nice and simple music player in Libadwaita, I came across Amberol.

Simple and does its job.

I have tried other music players in #Libadwaita, but none of them have really convinced me as much as Amberol (I still respect the devs and their work!)

For many years on Linux, from 2015 to 2023, I used Audacious, but I preferred to find something nicer and more in tune with the #GNOME design.

I have a question now, what music player do you use? (not necessarily in Libadwaita) :blobcat:

#linux #foss #opensource #music #musicplayer #simplicity

Does anyone with experience programming with #GTK #libadwaita know an article showing the (apparent) differences between how to build your UI? There seem to be at least two approaches, one with an .xml file where the UI is inherently detached from your code (like w/ Cambalache) and controlled via signals and… json? And the "classic" way of programming your GUI right in code.

Somewhat lacking information on what's the optimal approach. I only know the latter one due to working on Lutris.

Linux Mint 22.2 Modernises its Default Theme

More details on the makeup of the upcoming Linux Mint 22.2 release have been shared, including its codename (for those who track those). Linux Mint 22.2, which is expected to be released in July or August, is named ‘Zara’, continuing project lead Clem’s codename convention of using female names in (somewhat) alphabetical order. I say ‘somewhat’ since Linux Mint 22.1 release was ‘Xia‘, yet Linux Mint 22.2 is ‘Zara‘ – not sure what Yara, Yasmin, Yvette, Yvonne and Yelena did wrong. Perhaps Clem went a dodgy date one time… It’s not the name of the the next release most Linux :sys_more_orange:

Mission Center 1.0 ist da. Der Systemmonitor für GNOME bietet nun SMART-Auswertung via UDisks, GPU-Überwachung auf dem Raspberry Pi, Netzwerk-Stats pro Prozess und Dark-Mode-Umschaltung. Das Programm macht einen super Eindruck und kann eine Alternative zum offiziellen Systemmonitor von GNOME sein: https://linuxundich.de/gnu-linux/mission-center1-0-systemmonitor-fur-gnome/

Mit GTK3-Apps wie Firefox oder GIMP wirkte GNOME bisher oft uneinheitlich, wenn es um die Akzentfarbe ging. Die Erweiterung adw-gtk3 Colorizer schafft Abhilfe: Sie passt GTK3-Anwendungen automatisch an die GNOME-Akzentfarbe an. Installation, Kompatibilität mit Flatpak & Co. im Artikel:
