I think it’s just because some things have country-specific formats. For example, if you want to prefill credit card details, you have to figure out how the credit card fields are labelled.
It’s a website rather than an app, but if you open it fullscreen, it’s just as much fun: https://hackertyper.com
I’m assuming you’ve already found it, but just in case you didn’t: Framework has setup guides for Fedora, which presumably should make everything work as intended. Find your device on this page, then click “Fedora 39 Setup Guide” on the right-hand side: https://frame.work/linux
I wouldn’t worry about it too much; there’s not really anything you need to do as a user anyway.
Well, then I’d highly suggest you just use Xfce and not worry about GNOME so much. Xfce hasn’t changed much in years.
they try to reinvent the desktop experience every 2 or 3 years
GNOME 3 was released 12 years ago, and hasn’t changed that much (unless you consider horizontal virtual workspaces are a major paradigm shift somehow).
Just use something else if you don’t like it; no one’s “pushing” anything on to you. Clearly, other people do like it.
“The browser chrome” is the name historically given to the parts of the browser that are not the website. Then Google created a web browser and decided to name it after it - but userChrome.css
existed before the browser Chrome did :)
Good to hear, I hope that plays out!
Yeah, that’s fair enough. It’s not just working overtime though - endless toil on never-ending projects, especially when at a certain point, you’re not really making visible progress but rather are just working on a seemingly endless list of bugs and papercuts, is also terrible for motivation. The good news, of course, is that the Pop!_OS GNOME extension also got delivered, which, though a lot smaller than COSMIC DE, I’m sure also wasn’t a small undertaking.
I mean, I don’t really mind - I’m pretty happy with GNOME. All I’m saying is that if I were the project manager, I’d worry about delivering something and not burning people out (“focus is choosing what not to do” and all that, and the last 20% of the work taking 80% of the time). But in the end I’m just a random person ranting on the internet, of course - I do actually hope that I’m wrong.
But a diff viewer in the text editor… It just sounds like folks are eager to jump on shiny new things rather than finishing something, from the outside 🤷 Looking forward to be proven wrong!
No one would want to build applications for a platform that lacks widgets capable of properly displaying, formatting, and editing text.
Is the idea that people are only going to be running Iced applications in COSMIC? It feels to me like the realistic option would be that, if COSMIC ever becomes daily-drivable, people would still be using GTK applications with it, at least at first. Might as well use a GTK text editor then? Then System76 could focus on building a text editor after COSMIC is a thing, and COSMIC would hopefully arrive sooner (or even at all - this looks like the path to burnout).

You mean the ones for a closed and unhealthy web? :P
Maybe they could recommend Windows as well, while they’re at it, haha.
So you’re saying: don’t release the GTK 3 port until colour spaces are also complete? Why not give people what’s ready, and then when colour spaces are ready, cut another release? No need to make people wait who don’t need colour spaces.
(Additionally, it’s easier to verify that bugs reported before the release of colour spaces are more likely to be related to the GTK3 port.)
We can do that when it’s actually released; blogspam tries to publish on the expected release date before the actual release so it can scoop up the clicks. Release notes should be posted here later: https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/120.0/releasenotes/
As I understand it, the blocker has website-specific rules to automatically click the right buttons. For the first release, they’ve probably primarily tested those with German websites. I assume that if it works well there and they’ve ironed out most bugs, we can see it roll out more widely.
I stuck with Toolbox for a long time because it was default, but then I wanted to be able to easily recreate my *boxes with the same set of packages when e.g. they broke for some reason, or because the distro they were built on released a new major version. Distrobox supports that with its assemble command, so I switched. Otherwise it’s not too different really, for a casual user like me, and if I hadn’t needed assemble, Toolbox would’ve been just fine.
(Except that I keep forgetting whether Toolbox or Toolbx is the correct spelling now.)
I’m very excited about how the Linux community generally seems to be moving towards various approaches to immutable systems - all of them having in common that system updates are going to be a lot less likely to break. The future is looking good!
Well, yes, except that those X11 developers agree that Wayland is better.
