Delayed by distinguished guests today, Georges did a shorter #GNOMECalendar "live coding" stream at https://www.youtube.com/live/rbHbEoAFN5Q
This 1-hour session was focused on solving memory leaks found by the CI test suite.
In 60 minutes, Georges investigated & fixed *fifteen* memory leaks while casually chatting with the audience 🤯
The last edition of #BoilingTheOcean for 2025 is happening next weekend! If you're in Berlin on November 29 and 30th, join us at Cultivation Space 🪴✨
We'll have the full p2panda/Reflection crew joining, including Sam and @jsparber, so get ready for lots of fun peer-to-peer discussions! Of course, all the other usual topics (Linux Mobile, GNOME UX, security etc.) are also welcome :)

Another notable feature merged in the GNOME Calendar live coding session today: the ability to export an entire calendar as an .ics file.
This was originally added to the wishlist 10 years ago: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-calendar/-/issues/31
Thanks to @FineFindus's dedication towards implementing this (alongside the individual event .ics export feature) this year, you will be able to use this feature in #GNOME 50 (or the nightly flatpak version of Calendar today): https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-calendar/-/merge_requests/615

@gnome is cozy computing.
Adwaita apps are calm, focused, consistent. Tasks can often be done offline. Even badges for unread notifications are tinted blue and not red.
Non core apps are maintained by indie developers scratching their own itch. With GNOME Circle, a community of more experienced people help review and polish them.
GNOME is the village of Gauls peacefully resisting the Big Tech Empire with its sole existence.
First MR merged in the currently happening GNOME Calendar livestream: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-calendar/-/merge_requests/362
It's already available in the current nightly flatpak version. It is so nice to be able to use the new event quick-add popover, with no extra swirly pages etc. to pick the target calendar. Very efficient! 😌
Thanks to @TheEvilSkeleton for their patience and sisyphean rebasing of that much awaited merge request over the past 2 years 🫡
4 tickets have been closed as a result!

GNOME 50 Ends the X11 Era After Decades // @linuxiac
｢ However, it should be mentioned that the removal doesn’t mean X11 applications are dead—far from it. XWayland remains fully supported, serving as a compatibility layer that allows traditional X11 applications to run inside the Wayland session. For most users, this transition will be transparent ｣

This week, Georges "feaneron" Stavracas will be doing livestreams between 11h to 14h Brasília Time (14-17h UTC) while working on merge requests reviews in #GNOMECalendar!
The first session is planned this Tuesday here: https://youtube.com/live/CpgrEcG_KCE
Don't miss it if you want to learn practical @gnome GObject C #programming from a wizard

Am I correct in thinking that Ctrl + Tab and Super + Tab does the exact same thing in Gnome?
Seems like a waste, no? I feel like it would be more logical for Alt + Tab to switch between just the open apps in the current Workspace and Super + Tab switch between all open apps? Or Super + Tab switch between all open windows, not just apps.
Thoughts?
I opened an issue about this over on the #Gnome GitLab, in the hopes that someone might want to discuss if we could use this limited resource of sane default keyboard shortcuts better: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/8833
Please add your thoughts! :)
