In #GNOME 50 release of Damned Lies, our #translation platform, we got many improvements, most important of all now we support merge requests!
This allows our translators to push translations to projects on, e.g. #FreeDesktop #gitlab without needing to manually open MRs.

Desayuno con la actualización del tiempo de ejecucición #freedesktop 25.08 con la ilusión de tener #Mesa3D a la versión 26.0.1 y resulta que no. Han pasado de 25.3.3 a 25.3.5. Que no es la última revisión disponible de la rama 25.3.
Me hacía ilusión probar las […]

I don't get the Xorg rollback. If the code is that cooked, why bother reverting? Just kill the repo. Delete it. We are wasting time trying to save a zombie.
While at it, just add a use #Wayland sticker too.

Just applied for renewal of my GNOME Foundation membership. And realized it's been 10 years since I became a foundation member!
Time flies when having fun! 😎🔟:gnome:

La primera aplicación que ya usa el tiempo de ejecución #freedesktop 25.08 es @libreoffice; en mi instalación, claro.
He ido a mirar si tengo que instalar yo el complemento para tener aceleración de vídeo en #Firefox y ¡ya está instalado! Detallazo. Ganas de que Firefox se actualice.
That fontconfig chooses your font at random (rather than by following the OpenType specification) is DOCUMENTED.
Yet, if you report the behavior, you will be told ‘It is a known bug’.
IT IS NOT A BUG. FONTCONFIG MUST BE REMOVED. Software MUST stop using to select fonts, and instead use the […]
In the same theme is #Geoloquent, an attempt to rewrite the #FreeDesktop geolocation API in a type-safe language :rust_ferris:

There's a new cool project for Wayland. It's an experimental interpretation layer called "Wayback" like Wine for X11.

#PetPeeve: I hate that "Music" is one of the standard home folders on desktop computers. I love music, but I want it to be "Audio" -- not all audio is music (plus "audio" pairs better with "video"). When was this default established, in #MacOS X 10.0? #WinNT Earlier? (I think NextStep or BeOS […]
I know there's a lot of true lessons about OLPC and tech savior-ism.
Still I can't help but feel OLPC desktop is the only effort we have had to humanize computing, to let us peer a little under the engine, to let even kids work systems together. A lot of exquisite use of the #FreeDesktop that was.
