    Shows up as “unsupported” and doesn’t seem to work for me on gnome 50 😔

    Every extension that did the whole “free-floating/pill-shaped” COSMIC-style top panel (and there was a number of them) — not a single one got updated for gnome 50.

    Fortunately, gnome 51 will support top panel transparency, just like macOS. If I can’t make it look the way I want, at least I can just not look at it at all.

    I like gnome because it’s a very clean, slick, and minimalist interface. it stays out of my way so I can use the tools I need to use. It’s very like macOS (in the way that KDE is like Windows). I also like its extensions.

    I have also seen what’s coming up in GNOME 51, and I like the direction they’re going.

    As far as I’m concerned, a DE should be a thin layer between me and my apps. In my experience, KDE is just “too much“.



  • Sheesh M4 Support already? Wow.

    While the Apple M4 SoCs aren’t yet supported by the mainline Linux kernel and the Apple M3 series hardware isn’t yet ready for end-users, there are some early elements of the Apple M4 support beginning to come together by open-source developers working on the Apple Silicon support. Sent out to the Linux kernel mailing list were patches for enabling NVMe solid state drive support with the M4.

    Oh, still…
