I cannot express how cool this is. This is the first time I’m running Graphs on a mobile phone, and it just works. Quite nicely as well.
#GNOME and #libadwaita has really made it very easy to make your apps adaptive and behave nice on mobile phones. This is really powerful stuff. So many applications work really nicely on #PostMarketOS.

Over November 2025, I've been able to contribute to @gnome, and it was a pleasure!
I focused on GNOME Clocks, with the goal of making it as good as possible for GNOME 50. I focused on #accessibility, #linuxmobile and all sorts of bug fixes and features, as well as issue and MR triaging.
I also fixed some tiny issues in #GTK and #libadwaita, and helped make gettext-pseudolocale as good as possible.
I hope to find more free time to make GNOME Clocks 50 dependable as a mobile clocks app.

Wow! 6 days ago I created an issue over at #Gnome, about fixing a tiny annoyance I had, where I couldn't choose to open certain links inside #libadwaita apps in any way except for in the default browser.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libadwaita/-/issues/1093
The very same day the great @alice replied positively, and by the next day she already had three commits ready!
Today I checked in my #GnomeOS nightly, and whaddayaknow, it's already implemented! Yey!
So fun to actually have a real impact on the OS you use :)

The only thing is that after the commit was already created I saw that Bazaar had solved this same issue in maybe a better way…? question mark, question mark
At least it's a much more discoverable way. And I think it looks nice. But my suspicion is that it will not be a widely used feature, and so it might be better to hide it behind a right click, instead of having it right in the face of everyone all the time? idk

Mahjongg was accepted into Circle! 🀄🀄🀄
It's one the historical GNOME games, but thanks to Mat's modernization work over the past few cycles it looks very fresh and clean nowadays. Welcome :)

Over a week on #Gnome and #Debian now. And I must say that I love it. Never thought that I would say this. Has it still its quirks? Yes. But way less than I thought. And Gnome + their UI framework makes the apps look so georgous now. Really impressed by the quality of all those apps. OpenSource does not need to look ugly. Seems like #libadwaita makes it really straightforward to build beautiful apps.
A big thank you to all amazing open-source contributors to that ecosystem.
