I didnt see this was already posted to one of the main linux communities…

That being said, lots of exciting stuff in this space recently. It feels like compositors have finally gotten to a point where they can start taking advantages of the modernizations Wayland brings, now that they have implemented most of the basic desktop stuff.

Mutter merged an implementation of this protocol a few weeks ago: gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/5071.

The author also made a fun demo of this: https://files.catbox.moe/q3ut43.mp4 (comment link).

Uhh depends on your rig I guess. I build the various emulators from git and some of them like vita3k can take awhile.

But for me its more about being able to leave the update unattended, knowing that when I come back they will all be done and I can close the terminal window.

You have to set the WLBR_IS_GIMP env variable to get the new name. So I guess that might be what they going for, at least for now?

I get what you are saying but IMO the old name was hurting adoption. Imagine the headlines if say some city or government announced they are moving to GIMP from photoshop or affinity.

libadwaita demo runs on android now, and apk files can be grabbed from CI

Thats big! I didn’t know gtk had android support. For an alpha, the demo worked really well in my testing. I have used KDE apps on Android before but for some reason they are laggy and design wise dont fit in as well as libadwaita.
