 It's been a long road, but it seems GIMP 3.0 is nearing completion, with the release of a release candidate build. Non-destructive layer effects, GTK 3 UI (with CSD option), new colour management system, improved onboarding, and a whole lot more. https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2024/11/gimp-3-0-release-candidate-is-ready-for-testing  A new version of ONLYOFFICE, a free, open-source office suite for Windows, macOS, and Linux is out. Plenty of productivity-minded changes on offer, plus a new theme. https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2024/10/onlyoffice-8-2-brings-faster-file-opening-new-grey-theme  It's that time of the month - a new Firefox release!

@omgubuntu i really don't get this trend of making UIs with 10x more empty space than content - especially for something like this where all it's doing is showing information. the screenshot is only a 4 core CPU and already you have to scroll to see everything. if you look at the comparison screenshot in that same article, the other ones included far more info and are imo just as readable.  @omgubuntu It's great to see more of these modern system monitors. Hopefully, distros will also adopt one of these as the default or at least incorporate some of their improvements into GNOME System Monitor and KSysGuard.

Sidenote: posting this has led me to notice how nice Mastodon polls look in Tuba (a terrific GTK Fediverse client) ๐๏ธ  @omgubuntu Local files FTW, rarely stream stuff that I sadly can't buy because either author doesn't have Bandcamp, or never sell their music in files  Firefox 115 Released with Intel GPU Video Decoding on Linux https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2023/07/firefox-115-intel-gpu-video-decoding-on-linux #firefox #linux Happy 1st birthday to @omglinux ๐ฅณ My omg! spin-off site has now been pumping out content for a full year. Lots of you now stop by daily (thank you!) and nearly 5k people have followed it on Mastodon which is awesome. Here's to another year of #opensource news, distro releases, and #linux app highlights! ๐ฅ ONLYOFFICE 7.4 Adds Draw Tools and Plugin Support for ChatGPT https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2023/06/onlyoffice-desktop-editors-adds-chatgpt #opensource #ChatGPT So #Ubuntu 23.04 is out next week! I made a little video to show you the biggest changes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q6Opu7OQ-uc #linux #foss #opensource ๐ฆ๐  @omgubuntu Nice review. The superficial things that were improved are so basic that one has to ask oneself how long it will be at this rate till #ubuntu #gnome44 is a competitor for the UI of Windows XP ... 100 years? Cringe-worthily trivial basic improvements taking eons... sound like we need to start paying to accelerate this. And still has #firefox as #snap - how awfully awful. #ubuntu2304 Enable this Nautilus setting to move files faster on #Ubuntu - https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2023/02/ubuntu-open-folder-on-drag-drop-hover
