Today a friend and I spend a few hours building Reflection on MacOS. App icon is missing for some reason but the rest feels pretty great 😁

Reflection is now actually local-first, and almost the entire code base doesn't care whether you have network, or whether your device can't establish a connection to other devices via p2panda. Still not merged nor fully polished but we are getting there :)

Finally got the notification grouping merged into GNOME Shell. You should expect it in GNOME 48 🎉

Looks like it would be pretty easy to build an office suite that follows the GNOME HIG. I recently figured out there is a LibreOffice tiled render that can be embedded into GTK, there is even a prototype in core of LibreOffice.

I think we reached an important milestone today about my work on modernizing notifications in GNOME and for the FreeDesktop. Most of the improvements I proposed for version 2 of the xdg-desktop-portal got merged today. This has been a long journey and many thanks go to everybody involved, especially to those who reviewed the my changes 🎉 If you haven’t followed the journey:

Thanks for everybody for coming. I hope we will have an other Hackfest in Bologna soon.
