  1. It's been a couple months since my last #BudgieDesktop 11 stream (oof) but the sun is here, energy is back, and so are the streams!

    Tomorrow at 15:00 EEST: "Building Budgie 11 #5: Finding Common Ground on Outputs". We will be teaching Budgie Desktop Services to speak wl_output (via KWayland) so the Budgie 11 shell (panels, notifications, and more) can find the right displays no matter the compositor. Plan is to land wl_output support, then split it out into a library.

    Heads up: Budgie streams & vids will now live on the Buddies of Budgie YouTube channel, and the back catalog of Budgie-related videos will be uploaded there too! Once that's done, I intend on uploading them to our channel on the TILVids PeerTube instance. Just gotta see about getting an increased storage quota first!

    So be sure to follow / subscribe to either of those if you're interested :)

  2. I had the opportunity to meet up with @jolla again to talk about (and see!) how the new Jolla Phone is progressing, including new iteration that is using tooling and not hand-made.

    The tolerances are really fantastic now. No gaps! The buttons and privacy switch felt firmer, with the power button now being a bit more recessed to make accidental presses harder.

    Gone is the antenna tape, proper antennas are now around the device. Stronger battery shield. There were some design changes made to the interior (TOH2 side) to hopefully give any prospective TOH2 hardware designers in the community some more flexibility. I'll let Jolla dive into that since you never know if it'll evolve further beyond the iteration I saw.

    The Other Half 2 cover is now using an orange resin and not just a white base + color being painted on. It looks _more_ orange as one might expect. TOH2 snaps firmly into place now thanks to improvements to the tolerances.

    I'm really looking forward to July to get my hands on a finalized model!

  7. ICYMI: Fedora Budgie 42 and Fedora Budgie Atomic 42 will ship with Discover. It is very speedy and plays well with the atomic image (in that it doesn't have silverblue hardcoded as the rpm-ostree rebase image and result in users being surprised by a GNOME desktop after they upgrade!) 😁

  8. Congrats to the @xfce folks for all their fantastic work on #xfce420 and special thanks to all the work they have put in to libxfce4windowing (including responding to questions from us Budgie folks 😃). Lots of great work clearly went into the 4.20 release, the XFCE community should be really proud of all the contributions that made it possible.

    If you're an XFCE user and appreciate their work, be sure to spread some cheer during this holiday season (if you can) with a donation to their OpenCollectives!

  9. 🔴 Now live for more #Koto development over at youtube.com/live/2aTYrWtnj_k?f

    I plan on following up with a new entry in my "Dev Diary" before end of month. I had 12 updates in that series when it was GTK3/4 and I think rounding out what I've done in late Sept. and October leveraging #Qt6 and #KDE Frameworks would make for a good new entry.

  10. Wife and I, like many others, have been taking it as a personal challenge today to cut back as much on our electricity as possible given the massive p/kWh pricing. Every individual can help reduce the load on the grid. In my case I worked from the office today, opting not to use my power-hungry battlestation. At home, it's candlelit and battery on the MacBook Pro.

    Fortunately for us, our heating comes from district so our apartment is still warm. I feel bad for all those using electric heating. #finland #energyuse
