Oh thank $deity I can still launch #Chrome with --ozone-platform=x11 even though the configuration flag has been removed. Because #Wayland breaks *so many things* for me.
Surely I'm not the only one seeing dropdowns, tooltips etc. render in top-left corner of my screen under Wayland?

Not to brag, but #GNOME actually lists me as one of their friends 🥰

The Mini Floating Panel GNOME Shell extension has been updated to add a 'drawer' for accessing applet and other indicator icons - nice!

On August 15, 1997, @Migueldeicaza announced the start of GNOME on the GTK mailing list¹. Twenty-eight years later a lot has changed, but we continue to develop and iterate on “a free and complete set of user friendly applications and desktop tools… based entirely on free software.”
To help us continue this work far into the future, we hope you join us in celebrating our birthday by becoming a Friend of GNOME today! 🎂
