Sometimes your desktop just gets a little boring and when that happens, let Damask refresh it. The app can automatically cycle through your wallpapers and can even find you some new ones. It give you the option to pull from various sources, like Bing and Wallhaven's collection of backgrounds. With Damask, you can always have a new backdrop to your digital life!

You can follow the app's creator here: @subpop

You can get the app on Flathub here: https://flathub.org/apps/app.drey.Damask

Confy 0.7.1


Version 0.7.1 of #Confy, the #gtk4 / #libadwaita conference companion, has been tagged.

This release brings small fixes.
Main highlights are:

  • New German translation.
  • Flatpak now will use GNOME Runtime 45

#Arch #AUR packages are updated, #flatpak on #Flathub should be on its way.

For #Signal users on #Linux (and #MobileLinux), there is a poll on the community discourse to see how many people are using Signal on Desktop and where they are getting it from, if you want to chime in: https://community.signalusers.org/t/signal-on-desktop-survey/53978

Hopefully if we can show @signalapp@mastodon.world that there is interest, they will finally claim the #Flatpak (and hopefully the #Arm version from Elagost [1] at the same time) !

I'll keep saying it, because it keeps coming up. If you're working in the FreeDesktop, Linux, or Flatpak spaces, you *need* to understand this, even if you don't personally care about gaming or Steam Deck.

Since my replies are full of people missing the point (it's like a two-second meme is not nuanced!):

Of course I don't think #Flatpak, #Flathub, #FreeDesktop, etc. are evil. 😂

But we should be happy to use #SteamDeck as a way to get the cool stuff we're working on into the hands of millions of new folks. And we should be happy to use it as an example when talking to app developers we want to support #Linux.

Perhaps this is an alternative interpretation.

@dino 0.4.3 just got released with some exciting improvements for #LinuxMobile

1. Several fixes for touch input, making audio/video calls actually usable on phones
2. Fixes for video support so devices with #libcamera / #pipewire support like the #PinePhonePro work now
3. The app is now recognized as mobile friendly on #Phosh
4. Stricter #Flatpak sandbox - no device/all any more

The new version is available on #Flathub and lots of distro repos.

I returned to full #Debian macchine 5-6 years ago. Situation is way better than it once was. Also thanks to #flatpak the omnipresence of Ubuntu is not that relevant anymore

New article: "Overview of Flatpak's Permission Models"

https://theevilskeleton.gitlab.io/2023/05/11/overview-of-flatpaks-permission-models.html

I noticed that many people criticize Flatpak's security for lacking an #Android-style permission model. This article addresses this (false) information with real-world examples.

I explain the differences between the two permission models in a manner that less technical people can understand.

Huge thanks to @orowith2os for proofreading the article :)

#Ubuntu è ed è sempre stata una derivata di #debian #unstable. Perché non continuare ad usare il pacchetto Debian per programmi do così ampia diffusione?
E perché l'ennesima moltiplicazione di standard? Ci sono #appimage, #flatpak
