despite having a smaller desktop environment to develop and manage…

What does this mean¿?

This was common in budget laptops 10 years ago. I had a Asus laptop with the same resolution and I have seen others with this resolution as well

How do you see this¿?

They are onboard with the proposed protocol and have given their approval for the same

Damn. You have my respect.

For me, VLC doesn’t support VRR on gnome(didn’t try KDE) so I am using MPV. Even for me, who often struggles with using the terminal, it has been a breeze to use. I even changed the config files to have MPV use hwdec by default and it wasn’t difficult. Truly a marvelous project

Did you even read the article¿? She is pursuing PhD and is leaving to concentrate on that. She knows she won’t be able juggle both her studies and her responsibility as a director so she is stepping down which I think is the responsible thing to do.

That was an incredibly poised and informative response by Carlos. Thanks for linking it. Cheers

Oh ok. Are these changes tailored towards making touchscreen usage better¿?

Yeah. Scrolling(amount of scroll per turn of the scroll wheel/swipe on touchpad) has been intentionally slowed down. Another issue is when you scroll fast, the scrolling is stuttery because papers tries to render on the fly when scrolling. There is an open issue to discuss whether this should be the behaviour or not.

But don’t worry too much. It was much slower a month ago and yet progress is being made at a great pace and hence I expect it to get better in the near future. Pablo Correa Gomez(the lead dev of Papers) is doing some great work.

Hmm. Maybe gnome is not correctly using hardware acceleration in your machine¿? In my experience, gnome is perhaps the smoothest DE though it is heavier in resource usage than XFCE, MATE, etc. It does stutter and drop frames when the system is seeing very heavy resource usage.

Edit : when I am using the powersaver settings given by power-profiles-daemon, gnome does stutter a little. This corresponds to amd-pstate being active with the scaling governor set to powersave and the energy vs performance hint set to save power.

The animations and performance are already very smooth. In fact I feel the performance is better than what you get with windows and the animations are smoother as well

LTT still treats Linux like an in-joke.

Well the only one who seemed to actually like Linux at LTT was Anthony(don’t know her new name) Emily. Once she went to the background after her gender transition, enthusiastic Linux coverage more or less disappeared

I would sure appreciate that explanation. Like I broadly get that ‘at’ implies you are present with the person’s knowledge while ‘in’ implies you are there without their knowledge but I would like an explanation of why the meanings are implied as such

No, not out of the box. Since it is an experimental change, you have to enable the gsetting through the command line. After that a toggle should be shown in the settings’ page

When did the save current settings as default option disappear¿? It is neither in Papers nor in the latest versions of Evinceaa

Is this a mistaken post ¿? We have moved onto the beta now. The alpha was released a month ago

I don’t think so. Usually features are not added after the beta release

Not a gnome contributor(just a user) but I don’t think either request will be merged because usually there is a feature, UI and API/ABI freeze when the beta is released so no new features are added.

Edit : Seems to be backed up by this

Thank you. This seems like what I wanted
