For all the GTK devs (or those interested in icons after Jakub's talk), Matthias Clasen's talk has lots to show about all the under-the-hood improvements to native SVG rendering in GTK — including animated icons!

This morning, I scanned pages of an important document that I had to give back to the administration (and I cannot get back). I had to rush and on my way to said admin, I realized I had not saved the document...
Came back home, applied some updates and rebooted my computer.
Oh. Shit.
Re-opened it and was greeted with a recovery pop-up.
I'm deeply grateful for whoever implemented the recovery feature in #GNOME Document Scanner <gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/simple-…>. THANK YOU!!! You saved my butt!
I dusted off an old idea to show duration for walking segments of public transit itineraries that I played with a year or so back.
Now that the list is using flowboxes, which can wrap contents to multiple lines when needed I think it will probably look better:
#gnomemaps #PublicTransport #PublicTransit #transitous #routing #Gnome
After long hiatus, gitg, a GTK git client, received new major release!
It includes many long-awaited changes, such as accessibility and performance improvements, full support for git push action and custom actions!
Get it on Flathub!!! flathub.org/en/apps/org.gnome.…
Please also include in #accessibilty poor folks who only have access to old #lowspec computers. I love the #gnome design but often have to install a distro using xorg with #jwm or #icewm for these folks. Please have options to reduce gnome memory usage to run like 300MB or lower. Lowest Ive been able to achieve is around 900MB on Alpine which was still a lot for my cousin's 3GB RAM laptop.
Thanks to @ollieparanoid 's prompt we made a bit of progress moving @verdre @tbernard's mobile shell patches to /World for easier collaboration (already have 3 maintainers now) , and making the repos proper relational forks of their upstreams for easier syncing thanks to @alatiera. Rebasing from 48=>51.alpha/main not done yet (I'm a bit over my head on this one), but we have better tools to do so now. New home: gitlab.gnome.org/World/MobileS…
Nach 7 Jahren auf einem müden Ryzen-Laptop: Umstieg auf ein @tuxedocomputers InfinityBook Pro 14 (Gen10, Ryzen AI 7 350).
Kein Windows, RAM & SSD selbst tauschbar, mattes 3K-Display, Linux ab Werk — plus frischer Kernel und ab Werk eingespielte Fixes für Zen 5.
Erster Eindruck: Obsidian indexiert spürbar schneller, Ruhezustand tadellos, Lüfter fast immer still. Ehrlicher Schwachpunkt: die Akkulaufzeit.
Mein Erfahrungsbericht:

Added a "Similar apps" section to Bazaar today, making it easier to discover alternative or complementary apps.
It works by doing some fancy pre-calculated matrix math on the apps metadata to surface somewhat decent results without having to track any actual user data.
this week's app icon is for Nexus: "A simple and user-friendly Matrix client" by @QuadRadical
added to the list!

last week's app icon is for Wardrobe: "Prettify your desktop effortlessly" by Nathan Perlman.
based on an existing sketch by @jimmac
this week's app icon is for Fancyclopedia: "Browse and Read Fanfictions" by @zoeyTheWitch
because... I've been busy setting up page where #FOSS projects can request free design work for me.
mostly icon related for now as it helps me plan. UI design will come later once I figure out what that process will look like and it's a much bigger time investment.
have a look! ✨

I don't know about whether there is actual corporate backing here, but learning that J-M Brummer developed "Stamp" in his own corner for two years without any fanfare, I can imagine the words of Abram Tarasov echoing here:
"Jan-Michael…
is a man of focus…
commitment…
and sheer. fucking. will. 🚬🤨🤌
He once killed 3 memleaks in a bug…
…with a fökkin' ptrace! 😳✏️"
Want a #GNOME #email app "between Evolution and Geary"? Check out @jeb2's "Stamp" app, unveiled at #OpenSUSE conference 2026:
gitlab.gnome.org/jbrummer/stam…
He's been working on it for the last 2 years. It reuses the Evolution Data Server backend, combining its reliability with an adaptive GTK4+libAdwaita GUI.
It also handles contacts and calendaring (by embedding GNOME Calendar as a widget)! Future versions will allow using it not just as a PIM but also as a standalone mail app.
So lately I've been toying around a bit with Podium.
While it's still in early development, at this point I'm pretty set on using it for my GUADEC talk. It's a pretty cool and unique way to do this.
My article about the @gnome board elections is now in English available, too.

hey everyone,
you may have guessed reading between the lines, but I lost my job in the recent tech layoffs…
also burnt out and realised I need to go back to working on stuff I care about.
I hope to gather enough small monthly sponsors to at least cover the bills, so I can:
- 🖥️ create beautiful apps for #Linux / #GNOME
- ✏️ provide free #design support to #OpenSource projects
if you like my work, please consider $1/month to make this possible?
thank you. 😀

Gotta keep Firefox/Mozilla even if it is going downhill fast. Vivaldi and Firefox + variants are the only browsers I will use or recommend. Hopefully, we can steer Firefox and Chromium in the right direction before it is too late.
