Sometimes I hack around with the transparency & blur implementations for #GNOME, create a #GtkWebView2 with a tranparent background enabled, and just am in awe for a minute at what is possible on this platform

And here we have the CSD in all it's glory (missing the close button hehe)

Light & dark mode, proper libadwaita/GNOME CSD spacing emulation in the webview :)

@ebassi @panpantepan If GNOME Shell ever gets upstream support for this - from a developer's perspective, it's not just transparency but also things like the blur radius and more. Optimally, this would be background: transparent and backdrop-filter: blur(8px) etc. :)

I think I might have found a way to run and distribute #GTK4/ #libadwaita apps (without Broadway) locally on an Android device 👀

@bragefuglseth Storing settings/files shouldn't be an issue, we have a local data dir for that (I polyfill the XDG env variables etc.). But yeah, for many things that aren't covered by Greenfield/Wayland protocols this would require a lot of polyfilling, libhybris-style - D-Bus could work under proot, but it would ofc be isolated and thus pretty useless :)

@bragefuglseth I also don't know if the DRM would work or if we have to use hardware rendering. Might explore this a bit more in the future, we could probably use the Vulkan GTK backend with something like this: https://www.reddit.com/r/termux/comments/wa6p4g/comment/ii53f0q/

I think this is my first ever #postmarketOS contribution, that was easy enough, let's hope I didn't mess anything up :)

@craftyguy Hihi thanks! It's just a tiny bump but it was so easy to do thanks to the excellent docs!

Quick #flathub/#flatpak question regarding AppStream Metadata - what's the correct way to handle screenshots for apps that are inherently multi-window like Multiplex? In the long run I want to embed MPV, but that will be a while out still. I've tried to improve the old screenshots by green-screening the background and using the GNOME shadows, but I still can't pass the "resonable window size", "just the app window" etc. requirements ...

@cassidy Any chances the mono font will also be swapped?

Got macOS Sonoma to run on my old MacBook Air 11" from 2011, with full hardware acceleration. Finally an environment to test my macOS builds on!

Reminder that until Apple is legally forced to allow users to disable Notarization on their mobile devices, you still can't write and distribute an app for iOS anonymously or without paying $99/year, rendering 3rd party app stores utterly useless

Building a new mITX server later today ... move along, nothing special to see here ...

@sonny That's such a cute & adorable datacenter ^^ But ... does it do this? :P

Nix, please update your libadwaita package, I want to use the new about dialogs in Multiplex 🙏

pojntfx,
@pojntfx@mastodon.social avatar

@sonny I know, I use Flatpak as the only distribution mechanism for it, but the Go Adwaita bindings I use (https://github.com/diamondburned/gotk4-adwaita) depend on the nix package for code generation, so I can't actually re-generate the bindings for the new version yet!

By popular demand we're moving the GNOME 46 Berlin release party by one week, to Saturday April 6th and Sunday 7th.

Everything else remains the same, we're still going to do hacking, cooking, and talks at @offline on Saturday and more focused hacking on Sunday :)

@bragefuglseth @tbernard Is there a plan to swap out Cantarell in GNOME with Inter eventually? Because ... that would be super cool given how common the font is in the wild now and how much of the web also uses it!

@mariusor Yes! I had Sailfish on my trusty Nexus 4 and 7 years ago, and I'm using it as a tertiary OS on my Xperia 10 II :) It's neat, but it being so non-free and non-mainline is a bit of a dealbreaker (I actually paid for the Android app integration though, I'm super nostalgic for the UI)
