@itsfoss I was on the organisation team of #GUADEC The Hague in 2010. GNOME 3 was about to be released... great times!

GNOME intern Akshay Warrier made this to tease us mentors about the state of PRs reviews 😄

By the way, Akshay wrote a pretty cool blog post about their experience at GUADEC

There is a link to the video of their great project presentation too.

So we'll have a neat little camera indicator in #gnome45.

It will only show up for apps that use #PipeWire for camera access so we depend on more apps switching to it.

During the #GUADEC2023 "State of the Shell" talk I was asked what incentives there are for app developers to do so and unfortunately I messed up to make the probably most convincing ones, so short 🧵

1. support for modern cameras via #libcamera (as opposed to only #v4l2 / UVC cameras).

We had a fantastic time exploring Northern Latvia with the #GUADEC2023 group!

Thanks to our local team for organizing such a great tour!

Last night together at GUADEC

Remember that there is no such thing as "GNOME developers", we're individuals who get together, convince each others and get things done.

:gnome: 👖 Congratulations to @tbernard on receiving the 2023 #GNOME Community Appreciation Award, also known as the "Pants of Thanks"! #GUADEC

Loved the #GUADEC talks so far. Currently watching the @vanillaos talk, which kind of tempts me to distro hop. I thought I was past that :(

The Annual General Meeting (AGM) is happening right now at #GUADEC2023 and it's open to all: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=hv-bkYpHSbQ

:gnome: Awesome news: #GNOME shell will be getting a 📹 webcam activity indicator next to the clock to show when an application is recording. #GUADEC #privacy

:gnome: ♿ It's great to be able to join the #GUADEC talk from @Aryan20 and Pooja Patel on increasing #accessibility in the #GNOME project. A huge priority for me (as it is for so many others) as I begin this new term on the board. #a11y

:gnome: 🌍 Really enjoyed my #GUADEC chat with @ReginaNkenchor about #GNOME Africa and all of the great ideas about building community throughout the continent. Looking forward to helping out!

So, GNOME is apparently discussing a new way of window management, it seems to be tiling inspired.
Personally, I like this, but I also feel it deviates a bit too far from thre sjmple and elegant solution GNOME is supposed to do, what are your thoughts?
