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.

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.

It's that time of the month - a new Firefox release! The latest isn't packed with shiny new things, but some appreciable improvements are included.

The new Celluloid release is as fine-looking as a creme brรปlรฉe with its new floating window controls option (GIF below). More details on what's new -> omgubuntu.co.uk/2024/06/cellul #opensource #gtk

@omgubuntu i wish gnome would just give up on their players and use celluloid. one of the first flatpaks i install on gnome.

@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.

Do you mostly use music streaming services or do you still listen to music files on your #Linux laptop/PC? ๐ŸŽง

Sidenote: posting this has led me to notice how nice Mastodon polls look in Tuba (a terrific GTK Fediverse client) ๐Ÿ˜๏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

Happy 1st birthday to @omglinux ๐Ÿฅณ

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!

So #Ubuntu 23.04 is out next week! I made a little video to show you the biggest changes

@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

omg! ubuntu

Is it even safe to *think* the word "mastodon" on the bird site anymore?! 0_o

DELETED

@omgubuntu Probably not. So much for free speech eh?

@omgubuntu I'm skirting the ban as much as possible right now giving people various ways to get to our Mastodon ๐Ÿ˜… ๐ŸŒˆ
