I've been looking at my toolset and trying my best to lessen my dependency on Apple for hardware and the ecosystem for my day-to-day. My issues with waiting for a proper Linux laptop to surface are still there but until I either break down and buy a Framework 16 or something else comes along i've been palling around with an old Thinkpad P52s running Fedora/Gnome. Surprisingly, i'm impressed with Fedora and with some minor modifications to Gnome, it's relatively usable. My dislike for Gnome shell is waning and using Javascript for configuration annoys me but otherwise it's usable on an almost 6 year old laptop. Librewolf and vertical tabs are nice, nvim setup is working well and even with this age it handles my main benq rd320ua well enough. There are still some issues that annoy me, long gone are the days of working on configuration or writing patches to make things just right but toolset wise, not bad. #gnome #fedora #linuxlaptop #librewolf

Quite a lot stands out in the #GNOME 48 release, and while some of the changes which will be immediately apparent are the new default font, notification stacking, and updated window placement, I think improvements like the enhanced apps media apps, performance fixes, and other UI refinements will prove to be much-appreciated advancements.
