GTK's Adaptive Preview | GNOME 48

[@mii_beta]

i'd was about to upload one more Ghostty related video, but last second i changed it to Gnome ..although 👻👻👻 btw the recordings are awful, coz i record in 2k and then i scale it to 1080; will do 2k when i get my NVIDIA 50 ...Woooooooooo 😊😊

I think Android and ChromeOS adding more Linux app support is what's driving the mobile development. Ultimately the goal would be a more unified experience between mobile and desktop.

Why is GNOME so good😢

[@arindam7150]

KDE is better

Why is GNOME so bad?

[@luisjavieravilaolivera2471]

I hope gnome devs can use this to make their mosaic tiling window manager work better.

[@Kapendev]

This will be so helpful for my GTK android app.

[@NecroPolisXL]

This is very KOOOOL, I love this. I been use Linux sense 1997 and I am impressed by this very much.

[@Ewig_Luftenglanz]

Adaptive layouts aver very neat for tile environents and gnome has some tilling features

0:40 - Mii beta's true self . Hope she's fine , we need her review when cosmic De finally releases .

[@adamclayborn1063]

Mii beta's true form cannot be comprehended with normal human intellect. One must be either an eldritch abomination attuned to communication with the cosmoth, or at least a Linux kernel developer.

[@Tentri]

Oh this is going to simplify the development of my app so much!

[@raughboy188]

Looks like GTK is coming to smartphones whenther google and apple like it or not.

[@Yokai2510]

something related to cosmic DE , will cosmic gnome extensions will have to be rewritten in rust for them to work ? or will they run in js ?

[@mii_beta]

obviously. The "new" Rust Cosmic doesn't support the "old" Cosmic Shell extensions ..actually it was bad idea to keep call it Cosmic, since it's something totally new and completely from scratch; it's like they run out of naming ideas ..or they just loved the COSMIC name so much ..although it's a good name really!

Hi .What prompt are you using for the terminal? Is it Starship?

Yes, it's fish w starship!!

I'm just waiting for the day GTK4 and Adwaita become available on Android, I don't think it would be realistic to ask people to install Linux itself on their phones, but we could maybe make an open source store with Gnome apps

[@Verssales]

Really don't get the idea to focus on mobile... Don't see gnome or kde having any sort of major participation in mobile ecosystem. From my point of view they should focus on the desktop experience. But hey, this is just me.

[@b0t123]

Tbf the line that separates desktop and mobile is becoming very thin

[@clint.mayer20]

I think adaptive designs are nice for tiling managers. I will appreciate gnome apps when using them in cosmic.

[@pockejtepotkaliseukolina]

Having an adaptive app with good tiling is a benefit for us all ... (+ It's open source, people usually work on things they want to)

[@Klaymore-QT]

Mobile phones desperately need a new major player. Android and IOS are pretty much the only options and they are both terrible for privacy and freedom.

[@FikretGörkem]

Android 16 is going to introduce full linux vm support, so maybe that's why.

[@organess0n]

0:04 What? Linux is the most used in mobile phones by a long shot, and it is even more used than Windows.

[@mataznuiz]

gnome putting bookmarks above removable devices in nautilus is a sin. and the fact making a bookmark requires u to drag it to the bottom and it appears to the top is the cherry on the cake. unusable for me who has like 50 bookmarks for remote systems

[@10base-teaparty97]

It's better this way for virtually everyone else though. I'd much rather the removable media that changes more often be at the bottom than the middle. And as I almost never change the bookmarks, having the "add bookmark" at the bottom rather than being some narrow target between new items makes a lot more sense. I'd bet users are dragging items to copy files to a bookmarked folder literally 1,000x more often than making a new bookmark. You'd maybe be better off using stars than bookmarks for what you're doing. (Also, dude, control-d.)

[@jaws0079]

[@mataznuiz]

@10base-teaparty97 Hey, I greatly appreciate the reply. However, you actually can't star remote locations (as far as I know; it's greyed out when trying to drag a file or directory in a remote system). Ctrl+D of course works though. I totally acknowledge I'm using it wrong and will instead focus whatever feedback I give to GNOME devs on adding the ability to star remote stuff. One thing I noticed is that using Ctrl+D puts it at the bottom of the list, whereas dragging puts it at the top, which is inconsistent. I feel like the (worse) drag method for adding a bookmark should be fixed, as it makes no sense that one can't drag something anywhere in bookmarks to add it at that position. I still personally think there should be an option to show removable drives below bookmarks though. Most other desktops don't put them above bookmarks/libraries. Most people have very few things bookmarked (so they don't cover removable drives) and actually having removable devices change a lot means the bookmarks are going to be shifting their vertical position on the screen a lot. Obviously not an issue really since it's a floating window and muscle memory doesn't usually apply.
