  1. Prototype goes brrrrr... 😎

    Again, fully in prototype phase, but will have this in with the next bigger patch.

    #GNOME #Linux #Linuxapps

  2. Probably want to add the ability to fill the area under/below and between curves in Graphs 2.1.

    Seems like a sensible feature to have in, and can lead to quite pretty/clear figures.

    This is just a quick poc, but I have a quite clear idea about the implementation and an initial MR shouldn't take more than a day of actual work, but I do need to find some focused time to work on it.

  3. New from me: Another set of Linux app recommendations!

    This week we're looking at an offline maps viewer, a terminal multiplexer, and a magnification tool.

  4. It's so sad. With 📆 CalDAV we have a really nice open protocol for syncing events, todos and notes. The protocol, which is technically more of a file format (iCalendar) even supports quite complex reccurence rules and even things like recurring tasks.

    Unfortunately, client (and server) applications usually only implement a subset of what's possible.

    Know some good ones? Let me know!

  9. Linux App Summit would not exist without the generous contributions from our sponsors. @opensuse is especially special to us as the first to sponsor to LAS. They provided the initial seed money to start this conference and have been a consistent supporter for ten years! Thank you so much, @opensuse!

  14. New from me: 3 more Linux apps worth installing!

    This week I tried a GPU manager, a PDF annotation tool, and a terminal file browser.

  15. 🍎✨Oh joy, yet another way to clutter your pristine Mac with Linux apps you barely use, because who wouldn't want to run a Rust-written #Wayland #compositor on macOS? 🤖It's like deploying a spaceship to fetch groceries – overly complicated and completely unnecessary. 🚀🥴

  20. When I come home and my phone connects to the wifi that my Linux (Gnome) PC is also connected to, I would like all my new photos to be automatically sent from my phone to my PC.

    I would like this to happen without:
    - sending the photos via any third party on the internet
    - using any proprietary apps
    - having to set up Syncthing or anything similarly difficult

    Is this even possible? If not, what's the second best alternative?

    Thank you!

  21. I think we need a way to tag apps on Flathub as sending your input to an online LLM. If you do too, maybe give this issue a thumbs up? github.com/ximion/appstream/is

  22. I just recently learned about two "new"(?) e-mail clients for Linux:

    Aerion, which says it's inspired by Geary. aerion.3df.io

    And Betterbird, which is Thunderbird with quite a few extra bug fixes and small features, like support for systray icon in Linux. betterbird.eu/

    Anyone have any experience with any of these?

  27. Another successful week around the @kde app ecosystem. With a first release of Glaxnimate as part of KDE, more improvements regarding Marknote and much more!

  28. Pues he instalado Vocalinux para dictar cosas (speech to text) y ni tan mal. Eso sí me he echado unas risas con las pruebas, en automático me ha detectado que hablo chino, será por el hola y me ha transliterado un maullido del gato. Pero el resto bien, incluso me pone los puntos y las comas en su sitio.

    Está basado en Whisper.cpp y en mi ordenador va suavito, incluso cuando lo uso en Libre Office.

    Lo podéis encontrar aquí Vocalinux.com.

  29. It’s been a while, but here are some updates regarding @[email protected]

  30. Digital Sovereignty was the hot new topic at #FOSDEM. What does digital sovereignty mean to you and how do you see Linux applications support digital sovereignty?

  31. RE: hachyderm.io/@thisismissem/116

    This is such an interesting thread as it exposes the friction between ATProtocol/ActivityPub. Clearly, there are some cultural issues.

    It's important to understand and I say this often to our own desktop projects - we are always stronger together than apart.

    We are not competitors. We are allies.

    Understandably we might compete on investment and volunteers but those sort themselves.

  32. Can I share sound from my Android phone to my Linux PC? There are so many more apps for streaming music on Android than Linux.

    KDE Connect doesn't have that feature.

  33. Wow, huge update of Transmission! Including support for IPv6. One and a half year after the last stable release.

    Well done, team!

  34. As promised yesterday, here is a new issue of This Week in @kde Apps.

    In the menu, there is a lot of new stuff in @neochat, a release of Calligra Plan with Qt6 and more work toward Drawy!

  35. 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.

  36. I got a little tired of the normal cli workflow for homebrew, the package installer, which works on linux.

    So, I worked with Claude to scratch my itch. Seems to have worked great for me and my personal brew system.
