If you’re on Linux, there’s a good chance you use GNOME: it’s the default experience across Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora Workstation, Endless OS, and more. If you’re on another desktop, you still likely use components developed by GNOME contributors—or maybe you get apps from Flathub.

Giving GNOME a chance on my new Framework 13 laptop. Last time I tried it was around 7 years ago, and it's much better than I remember.

But some ridiculous things keep popping up — like the fact that I still can’t adjust the touchpad scroll speed. What the heck? libinput has supported this for ages. How is this still not a thing?

Thanks to @s3phy again for helping me understand another area where IPv6 is broken in Linux desktop networking configuration tools: connecting to a SSH server to create a SOCKS proxy using the NetworkManager SSH plugin. That thing only checks if the gateway address is a valid IPv4 address

I reported the issue here: https://github.com/danfruehauf/NetworkManager-ssh/issues/130

For those who were unable to attend, or see the recording, these are the notes for my GUADEC 2025 presentation about introducing a formal technical governance in GNOME, starting from a "change proposal" process, through the addition of a steering committee to evaluate those changes, and all the way down to the removal of the role of the "maintainer" for projects that exist under the GNOME umbrella.

The presentation "Terminal-mode GNOME" by @n8 can be seen here:
https://www.youtube.com/live/Z7F3fghCQB4?feature=shared&t=21489

Very useful for someone who runs a simple window manager with lots of terminal stuff, but needs to integrate with #GNOME apps from time to time.

I think that the "open" or "xdg-open" command can be a replacement for many programs offering menu launchers for apps.

Finally back home after GUADEC. Thanks to all the foundation’s staff and the local volunteers for an incredibly fun and successful conference—and hopefully just the first time of many more held in Italy
