This is what happens when you rely on downstreams to package things...
This is just broken, and worse all, its promoted in the pkg catalogue in gnome-software just cause it exists in the fedora repo.
This is absolutely not the app's fault. Its downstreams that value "availability" over UX and catering their software catalogue to their actual system.
Packaging apps that were never meant to run on this system is just breaking the apps and their brand for no good fucking reason...
"Looking ahead, I'd love to see a foundation bring together the Linux desktop community and have them hammer out out a common desktop for everyone."
What about the GNOME or KDE foundations? or do those not count? What about the elementary folks doing an excellent job at designing their OS and ecosystem?
LINUX ISN'T THE FUCKING PLATFORM... Stop treating desktops environments as pluggable modules that you should be able to hotswap without that having an effect in functionality of your machine.
@tbernard The most problematic part imo, is that they believe they are a platform themselves. And if you look for example at ubuntu, they *really* do try to be one even though they don't have virtually any guidelines what so ever.
@cassidyjames Platforms variants, I see you Samsung, should also stop implementing their own sets.
I can accept MS, apple, and google having their own set of emojis but Samsung, facebook and everyone that pretends to be a platform should be banned from theming such crap
@timapple@tbernard That won't be the case. The OS would be just an OStree image of the Buildstream project that's used to already manage the releases and build the GNOME runtime/sdk. And thanks to Flatpak you won't miss out on content/apps either.
Essentially apps that target the GNOME flatpak runtime are already targeting the GNOME OS base.
* Felix implemented support for MPRIS2, which means that Podcasts now integrates with the Playback controls of your Desktop * @brainblasted Ported Hyper to 0.12 and added support for openssl 1.1. * 9 more translation languages/dialects were added. * The UX continues to get more polished and a handful of bugs were fixed.
The best part is that you can get it right now, minutes after the release, from Flathub!
