Well well well let's work on making a release then.
'tis been fun working on this application launcher, next up is adding support for extensions, and i have some solid ideas for that implementation in the same vein as the import functions in the creative writer.
yes, yes i know, who needs another application launcher.
but come on, this is metal AF.
(and yes, i know about the openrouter typo)
It took so long to find the energy to figure it all out, but I finally got the iPod Classic running RockBox reliably with my flac music library. And it's using the adwaita theme to match my laptop lol. I am so happy to be able to use it for listening to my music especially since I kinda broke my HiFiWalker H2 a few months ago.

In Fedora 42 KDE Edition, the annoying bug with distorted and way too big mouse cursors in GTK/libadwaita applications is finally gone :-)
The mouse cursor is now rendered identically in QT/KDE and GTK applications alike.
Nice!!

Interestingly it appears that the #gnome circle website is still using #cantarell fonts instead of the new #adwaita fonts. I wonder if they will update this
I know a lot of people switched to the new #Adwaita fonts right after their conception, but I've actually sticked with Cantarell 'till the very end except for some light testing. Just upgraded to the latest Fedora beta with the new fonts, and it's a whole new world!
This is the culmination of years of discussion and research by many people, but @monster deserves a special thanks for spearheading this particular solution and pushing the initiative over the finish line once and for all.
is there somewhere i can find something like a "dos and don'ts of using #GTK4 and #adwaita"?
i've been reading through random issues and MRs on various #GNOME repos, and i'm finding some really useful comments about things that you should(n't) be doing. things like "using a listview inside a box is wrong and broken" - this is really useful knowledge, but i can't find it actually formally documented anywhere.
if there are any #GNOME designers/artists (gnomes? gnome heads? gnomish sourcerers? gnaphic gnesigners?) seeing this, does it comply with the HIG in your opinion? what would you suggest changing if not?
the cheesecrater icon uses the standard rustacean image, which doesn't have that smooth, rounded look the HIG usually suggests, but i lack the skill to make a "blobby" version of ferris.
the crates browser, with its triple-pane layout (third screenshot), is the most complicated of them, but it's based on the design of the crates.io website, which displays the readme alongside a right-aligned "metadata" pane.
(also: either it's very hard to write descriptive alt text for UI design screenshots, or i am very bad at it. possibly both.)
Finally completed Debian and Ubuntu sections... Will possibly actually open source it later this week after General and RHSA is actually done
internet yesterday was kinda ass due to working in the China office, so didn't update yesterday... Some new progress, really love the AdwTabBar, but still thinking about a good search indicator
#GNOME48 #Beta wechselt zu #Adwaita #Fonts
Am 19. März steht mit GNOME 48 die nächste Veröffentlichung der Desktop-Umgebung an. Jetzt steht eine Beta-Version zum Testen bereit. Die Vorabversion kann in der Virtualisierungssoftware GNOME Boxes mit GNOME OS getestet werden.
Neuer Standard Font
Was langjährigen GNOME-Anwendern vermutlich gleich ins Auge springt, ist eine Änderung der Standard-Schriftart.
