Our readers will be used to reading more news about new versions of Plasma. This is because the KDE Community publishes much more information about it and also more updates, something that Project GNOME seems to have started to do as well. A few moments ago launched GNOME 3.34.3, the latest maintenance version of one of the most popular graphical environments used by distributions such as Ubuntu, the operating system that gives this blog its name.
Until recently, the GNOME Project released new versions of its graphical environment every 6 months, but they have decided to change this trend so that bugs do not go unresolved for so long. GNOME 3.34.3 already arrived with many changes, and many of them were being prepared for GNOME 3.36. Here you have a small list with the most outstanding news.
Notable changes in GNOME 3.34.3

The new version is now available in code form, but we will have to wait a while for the different distributions to upload it to their official repositories. You can download the code from this link Or, what the editor of this article would recommend, have a little patience and wait for the new version to appear as an update in your software center. They will also upload the updated packages in Flatpak version.
