Now that GNOME has a Device Security control panel with a list of security events, it would have been nice to be able to control #USBGuard from Settings and have quick and easy access to the latest events…
If it had been a suggested dependency of #GNOME and #KDE, USBGuard would have been present on most distributions a long time ago 🤔
In 2018 there was a #GNOME project to strengthen security with regard to USB, but I have the impression that nothing came of it in the end 🤔

Watched the last episode of TechOverTea by @BrodieOnLinux , with Georges Stavracas, a great lead dev in Gnome, Wayland, you name it. The amount of shiite and harassment he, and many other FOSS people have to suffer is simply staggering. And no, it's not 'them', it is from the 'free and opensource community'. It's by us. Think about that and let it sink in. We have to do better for them and act, no coffee talk. As a true community.

The 'Activities' button always translated really awkwardly to any of the languages I use. Hint: it's because 'Activities' is a _terribad_ descriptor of what the button actually does.
In this week’s #Linux and #OpenSource podcast, we have the new #Ubuntu App Store that will demote deb packages, we have the alpha of #GNOME 45, and #Fedora proposing to add telemetry in a future release.
Ever since doing the initial completion support in #phosh 's osk-stub I wanted to add a generic "unix pipe" like completer. phosh-osk-stub would feed the program preedit on stdin and read the completions from the program's stdout.
That is there now and with that and some more changes I can use @zachdecook 's #swipeGuess to do swipe like typing. To be clear: all the hard work is done by swipeGuess, phosh-osk-stub just piggy backs on it:
