  1. 🛒 Bazaar se alătură GNOME Circle și este propus ca succesor pentru GNOME Software în lansarea GNOME 52!Proiectul Bazaar — un magazin de aplicații modern, construit de la zero în GTK4 și Libadwaita cu accent exclusiv pe aplicațiile Flatpak și integrarea Flathub — a făcut un pas uriaș înainte prin primirea oficială în inițiativa GNOME Circle. Mai mult, dezvoltatorii își propun ca Bazaar să înlocuiască complet învechitul magazin GNOME Software odată cu lansarea GNOME 52.✨ De ce este Bazaar văzut ca viitorul magazin de aplicații pe GNOME?🚀 Performanță și fluiditate superioară:• Spre deosebire de GNOME Software (recunoscut pentru consumul ridicat de memorie, pornirea lentă și căutarea greoaie), Bazaar este proiectat să fie ultra-rapid, consumând o fracțiune din resurse.🎯 Focus dedicat pe Flatpak & Flathub:• Prin renunțarea la gestionarea pachetelor tradiționale de sistem (.deb, .rpm) și concentrarea exclusivă pe formatul Flatpak, Bazaar oferă o experiență de instalare, actualizare și căutare mult mai stabilă și fără erori de dependențe.🎨 Interfață nativă GNOME (Libadwaita / GTK4):• Respectă fidel ghidurile de design GNOME (GNOME Human Interface Guidelines), oferind un aspect minimalist, adaptează perfect modul întunecat/luminos și funcționează excelent pe ecrane tactile.🛡️ Recunoașterea GNOME Circle:• Includerea în GNOME Circle atestă calitatea codului, integrarea impecabilă în ecosistem și sprijinul oficial din partea fundației GNOME pentru dezvoltarea viitoare a aplicației.O schimbare importantă care promite să rezolve una dintre cele mai vechi probleme de experiență a utilizatorului (UX) de pe desktop-ul GNOME! 🚀#Bazaar #GNOME #GNOME52 #GNOMECircle #Flatpak #Flathub #Linux #LinuxDesktop #Linuxiac #OpenSource #TechNews #FOSS

  2. Amberol is a sleek music player that plays music and nothing beyond that, it doesn't overwhelm with tons of unneeded preferences. It's also what popularised using album art for the background in music players!

  6. It's been taking a while, partly because I've been occupied with other things. But the fill feature in Graphs is almost ready for review. So soon (tm) you'll be able to create fancy graphs like this.

    Note that once we've merged this, it will be part of the dev/beta branch, we won't cherrypick feature updates into stable.

  7. A new app has joined GNOME Circle! Meet Bobby by @hbons, a handy app for inspecting SQLite databases.

    Get it on Flathub:

  8. Small change in the Graphs beta (still on MR), but the plan is labels to be truncated dynamically in the upcoming release, instead of the current max limit of 40 characters.

    The main reason was on mobile phone testing, it was pretty easy to have the label so large that it messes up the window. But truncating even more by default feels like a waste on PC screens. Hence, doing this dynamically based on canvas size.

    Coming to Flathub stable on May 15th :)

  9. A new #Hieroglyphic release is out now. Thanks to the exciting work done by @bnyro,
    Hieroglyphic can now also recognize @typst symbols (a modern alternative to
    LaTeX). Hardware-acceleration will now be preferred over using the CPU, when
    available, reducing power-consumption.

    Head over to @flathub to download the latest version: flathub.org/en/apps/io.github.

  10. And slowly we're inching towards a release for the next version of Graphs.

    Currently working on documentation. With the next release at least all features and such should be described, making it complete in principle (which was a blocker for 2.0). That's the net 700 new lines coming in.

    Later on I intend to add some more explicit how-to's, and maybe explanations on e.g., statistics or mathematics behind certain transformations (e.g., what does the Fourier transform do).

    #GNOME #GNOMECircle

  11. As you may already have learned from the @gnome 50 release notes, Sessions has been accepted into #GnomeCircle

    Sessions is a simple visual timer application designed specifically for the pomodoro technique and maintained by @pojntfx.

    apps.gnome.org/Sessions/

  12. #Eyedropper 2.2.0 is out now, bringing support for color picking without
    having the application open. It also now supports RGB in decimal notation
    and improves support for systems without a proper portal setup.

    As always, you can download the latest release from Flathub flathub.org/en/apps/com.github

    #GNOME #GNOMECircle #GNOMEApps #libadwaita

  13. Thanks to an update of the underlying libraries the next release of #Hieroglyphic will automatically use hardware acceleration (i.e. NPU) when available, improving efficiency.

    #GNOME #GNOMEApps #GNOMECircle #libadwaita

  14. Error bar functionality in Graphs is basically ready for now. So soon you'll be able to use error bars in graphs, turn them on or off on demand. Style them as you like, and even exporting works as intended.

    Coming to a beta branch near you soon (tm) :)

    #GNOME #GNOMECircle #libadwaita #linux

  15. Current progress on error bars in Graphs. Basically everything works quite well now, and you can pick error bars for either axes (or none at all).

    Apart from more testing, I mainly want to add options to style them a bit maybe before merging this in (could be a separate MR though). Also maybe a row in the "Edit Item" menu with the option to hide the error bars for the item in question.

    #GNOME #GNOMECircle #Libadwaita #Linux #FOSS

  16. More errorbar experiments on Graphs. Definitely getting this in for next release.

    Core functionality is working. Just need to implement things on the UI-side of things. E.g. turn errorbars on/off, pick a column to choose errors on import, and adding options in the style editor to customize them.

    #GNOME #Linux #GNOMECircle #Libadwaita

  17. Toying around with error bars. This is probably a reasonable goal to have in the coming release of Graphs. Likely one of the last things to add before announcing a full release (which is a bit overdue).

    Has been plaguing me for a while now, but I could fix the blocker I had last time (the error bars not updating with the data on changes). So now it's just a matter of a clean implementation, and exposing options to style them a bit more reasonably in our style editor.

    #GNOME #GNOMECircle #FOSS

  18. Now the all new custom math parser has been merged in Graphs, we officially have more lines of #Vala than #Python.

    Thanks cmkohnen, the other Graphs-maintainer who has been working on this. Now we no longer depend on regex hackery for parsing equations, which is always a bit brittle. Also comes with a significant performance boost.

    #GNOME #GNOMECircle #ValaLang

  19. #Eyedropper now supports the new session restore feature, so it will automatically restore picked colors across reboots.

    Thanks to @AdrianVovk for the excellent guide!

  20. Sometimes having the source code available of other projects is very useful.

    I noticed that GNOME Text Editor nowadays correctly displays the file path in the subtitle, even in Flatpak with limited permissions. This was not always possible to the best of my knowledge.

    So instead of asking somebody for support, I can simply look at their source code how they handle it, and lo and behold. Now I've got a fix for this in Graphs as well :)

    #GNOME #GNOMECircle #FOSS

  21. I was just updating the list of changes in the upcoming version of Graphs. The list is getting pretty long at this point 📈

    We probably don't have any major additions planned for this release at this point (meaning we're getting close).

    Apart from having a look at the feasibility of adding support for error bars, as well as parametric sliders for the new equations within this release. If not now, those are the two major things that are next on the list.

    #GNOME #FOSS #GNOMECircle #LinuxApps

  22. Probably the last change the the curve fitting dialog in Graphs for now. I've also added the ability to check the residuals of the fit visually.

    The use-case here is so you can see that your variance is not dependent on your x-value. Like in the video you can see that an exponential fit has a smaller error, but the clear line in your residuals indicates that it's probably a worse fit than the linear one.

    #GNOME #libadwaita #GNOMECircle

  23. It's a quiet NYE this year, in other words I have some time to mess around in Graphs while my wife is taking some rest before midnight.

    Support for LibreOffice and MS Excell Spreadsheets is now mostly functional. Will be part of the next major release.

    And of course happy 2026 to all :)

  24. 😩 It's time to end my suffering and finally replace #Fedora Workstation with the official #Plasma release.

    Not entering a serious relationship with #Gnome at this point but we stay friends. Still love many apps from the world of Gnome. :blobcathearthug:

  25. @gnome GNOME is design-driven, in the way that user experience comes first. While an opinionated approach may not suit everybody’s workflow, in my view it leads to better, more testable and more polished products.

    Also the community. Started on Graphs as a humble side-project, and was positively surprised by the amount of help and feedback I got from GNOME community, including the always fantastic design team. There’s few processes where I learned more than when we joined #GNOMECircle.

  26. Ich teste momentan ja :gnome: #Gnome unter #Fedora auf meinem Arbeitsgerät, während ich eigentlich seit Jahren privat und vorher beruflich #KDE #Plasma gewohnt bin.

    Weiß noch nicht ob ich dabie bleibe. Ich muss mich ehct bei sehr vielen DIngen umgewöhnen und einiges umbiegen bzw. nach meinen Bedürfnissen konfigurieren. Aber eigentlich will ich den Desktop ja nicht zu stark verbiegen...
    An anderen Stellen vermisse ich Features.

    Nein, ist natürlich nicht alles blöd: Gnome ist wirklich schick und fühlt sich wie aus einem Guss an, außerdem gibt es auch wirklich tolle #GnomeCircle Apps.

    Gibt es tolle Exklusiv-Features oder Workflows, die ich mir mal anschauen sollte? 👀

  27. I've just released a new version of #Hieroglyphic. Thanks to @bragefuglseth's design, the application is now responsive and can be used on mobile devices. This release also includes blackboard bold characters, as well as the usual improvements to the classification model. It also switches the runtime to the industry-standard ONNX runtime, which provides some minor speed enhancements and the possibility of (non-cpu) hardware acceleration in the future.

    #GNOME #GNOMECircle

  28. Latest feature I'm working on in Graphs. In the upcoming version, you will be able to set tick labels on all axes that have ticks, not just the bottom and left.

    It's a relatively small change, but this should make it much easier to read data in certain workflows :)
