Using the Fedora 39 beta, and enjoying the Gnome 45 that comes along with it
No issues so far, hope it stays that way
Auto tiling when
We'll have to wait for their new Mosaic system to be implemented
Pop_OS has a toggle. Not pure gnome or Ubuntu, but close enough/better.
Now with extensions
More accurately 'not anymore' since this release breaks gTile and others...
What did they remove this time?
Nothing immediately springs to mind, unless you count stuff like replacing the old image viewer with a better one "removing stuff".
They added some stuff though. Excellent release.
@unionagainstdhmo when will it be released for Debian 12?
Never probably, might make it into the unstable branches but I'm not too familiar with those
@unionagainstdhmo Time to leave debian it is hehe
Not necessarily. You can stay in Debian but point your repos to the sid/unstable distribution. They will have GNOME 45 soon, but it's a one-way ticket.
Damn, I gotta get a one way to ticket to serbia just to use gnome?
Unfortunately, overhunting has severely reduced their numbers to the degree that Serbia is one of the few places where they are still plentiful thanks to their rigorous protections.
Damn auto-correct. Who doesn't include "Debian" and "Sid" in its default dictionary?
@selokichtli thanks, that's helpful, but can you provide me with a guide or something?
All you do is update your current system, change your repo sources to whatever branch you want, then do a full-upgrade. For branches there is stable, testing, and unstable (called sid). They don't recommend you use sid for everyday use, things can be buggy (currently sid is on GNOME 44 at any rate). Instructions
It's really common and actually explained in the Debian Wiki. Also, as others have mentioned, a stabler choice would be to use Debian testing/trixie, which will get GNOME 45 after a week or so in Debian sid/unstable.
Finally, the "one way ticket" is not really that. You can always wait for your testing or sid Debian OS to stabilize by managing your sources list in time. For example, by using "trixie" instead of "testing" in your sources lists, as long as they are all official repos, when Trixie launches as the Debian Stable distribution, you will be using Debian Stable. If you choose to use "testing" in your sources lists, you will always stay with a Debian Testing distribution.
In the next 10 years /s
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
