Weekends are days to find out what's new in the Linux world. Between KDE and GNOME more than 50% of the Linux desktop market share is covered, and after Nate Graham's noteAlthough this was published yesterday, now we are going with the news in which the project is working whose graphical environment uses the main versions of operating systems such as Ubuntu. They are not as many as those of KDE, but they are usually improvements that are already available.
One of the applications they are working on is Telegrand, a Telegram client that is better integrated into GNOME. If they are working on it, it is thinking about that integration and also that it can be used on mobile devices, in this case on Phosh. Below you have the News list which they advanced us last minute yesterday.
This week in GNOME
- Basic support for hourly, daily, weekly and monthly backups has been merged into Pika Backup. As a result, the overview of configured backups has been updated to show the schedule status of each configuration.
- Version 2.1.0 of the Metadata Cleaner is now available. Now lets you add entire folders at once and brings some other improvements.
- Rhythmbox can now be built with Meson instead of Autotools.
- Keyboard support for playing Hitori without a mouse has been implemented.
- Telegrand now supports multi-accounts, it can be entered using the QR code, the function of recovering and resetting the password has been added, the preview of new types of messages has been added in the sidebar and the code has been cleaned to improve the performance.
- Fractal has been adapted to Libadwaita and several issues have been fixed.
And that's been it for this week at GNOME.
