    Patches to bring back a traditional experience for GTK+3

  • It's a bug when it stalls out your computer for 2-3 seconds because the file picker is doing a recursive search through all of your files.

    Luckily, the patches that fix this (along with some other bugs and anti-features) are actively maintained by community members, despite being ignored by the GNOME project.

  • tilix

    A tiling terminal emulator for Linux using GTK+ 3

  • Apologie, this has been an incorrect definition on my side (but correctly understood by the GP).

    What I referred to with "tiling capabilities" in:

    > tiling capabilities of the terminal are severely limited because the devs are hostile to APIs that would allow such functionality (see Tilix debate)

    is actually the keyboard navigation/selection support in the terminal.

    There has been debate between terminal maintaner(s) and GNOME devs, and lead to nothing.

    Without providing any technical information, the twit has no validity, and IMO, it's just another, typical, "F* you" from GNOME devs.

    The is a reference to the debate [in the Tilix bug tracker](https://github.com/gnunn1/tilix/issues/1305), but regarding the debate itself, I don't have it handy.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
