Great news for Linux gamers.

Steam will soon use the desktop portal file picker.

In practice, it means Steam will use your native desktop method for selecting and saving files, resulting in better user experience and desktop integration.

This is one of many things Flatpak and GNOME pioneered that improves the Linux desktop for everyone.

A screenshot of the native file picker as used by Steam.

@picard indeed, I said for everyone 😄

If anyone has in mind to try with Steam Beta, beware, there are a number of issues still.

@andresdiaz no, that's just the folder I created and selected

@mattiasb Not really, the home dir is already invisible to Flathub Steam.

@carlschwan I picked a random one and found this out

I use Flatpak for all my apps so I wouldn't have noticed.

I think all it takes is for the freedesktop community to help.

The new #GNOME apps of Loupe and Snapshot are pretty sweet. It's great that people find the time and passion to be able to contribute their talents for free.

Did you know you could use Mastodon as a comment platforms on your blog? I blogged about this 2 years ago https://carlschwan.eu/2020/12/29/adding-comments-to-your-static-blog-with-mastodon/ but since there has been a lot of newcomers recently, it might be a good idea to share it again 😜

@carlschwan neat, do you know of anything or anyone doing this server side?

@carlschwan are you talking about fetching the toots at build step?

@sonny@floss.social avatar

Just an idea/experiment so far, but I'm tinkering with:

#GTK renderer for Markdown and "Learn development with #GNOME" app / interactive tutorial

Anyone interested in the renderer? What would you do with it?

Workbench 42 is out, enjoy Blueprint and Vala support. 🎉 #GTK #GNOME
