tbh the tab overview is still one of my favorite things about GNOME Web

(and other GNOME apps that have it but I use it most often in Web)

@Akzel I love how it manages trackpad gestures compared to firefox, I mostly use Firefox with the gnome theme. But I wish I could daily drive gnome web

@Akzel love its design!!

However, the lack of extension support and a bug I’ve been facing recently where every single nginx hosted website spits out a “Bad Request” error keep me from using it as a daily driver…

comparison of new Nautilus-as-filechooser (left) and the current GTK4 filechooser (right)

(the former being in a GNOME OS VM, the latter not in the VM, but positioned over top of it)

#GTK #GNOME #LibAdwaita

On the left, a filechooser dialog for saving a web page. The dialog is nearly identical in appearance to the Nautilus file manager; at the bottom of the main view is a drop-down to select file type, a text entry for the name of the file, and then a Save button.

On the right is the current GTK4 filechooser dialog. The file type selection is in the bottom-right corner, and the text entry is on top above the path bar, with a Cancel button to its left and a Save button to the right.

@Akzel I definitely prefer that "x" over the "close" button. A huge UX improvement

@Akzel the filename bit is a bit.. off? It feels just looking at it, wrong. I'd expect a text edit field, where I can quickly click or highlight, rename and save, without hitting an edit button, moving the cursor again, etc... I'd have to use it tbh. It looks pretty, yet unusably extra.

@Akzel hm, i don’t know, Nautilus as a file chooser feels… odd, the current gtk4 chooser feels more natural and straightforward in that regard

speaking of waking up to cool news:

- Accent color support in GNOME landed
- DRM Leasing (for VR headsets) landed

and on top of that:

- Nautilus-based FileChooser is on track to land for GNOME 47
- HDR support might happen for 47, too?
- By the time GNOME 47 is out, we'll also have a new version of the freedesktop runtime, with Gstreamer 1.24, which means gst-va ootb for hardware decoding in Epiphany and Gstreamer-based video players

so tl;dr: GNOME 47 is shaping up to be an awesome release
