The @npub1ncg…xyj5 podcast interview about @npub1k6e…gqwv featuring yours truly is out!
Thanks @npub1rt5…d6vp for the invite and for editing our sprawling conversation into something coherent 💚

Among other things we had extensive discussions about the future of Flatpak, Portals, GNOME OS and the various systemd components it uses, the Reflection text editor app, and hardware enablement for the Fairphone 5.
We also touched on a surprising number of interesting but more unusual topics, such as software preservation, permacomputing, payment infrastructure, reproducible builds, and more.
We also have much nicer photos than usual thanks to @npub16ge…q8qs, so here are a few more:

Part 3 of the GNOME Shell gestures work by @npub16ge…q8qs has landed in Mutter/GNOME Shell main. This is one of the main dependencies for upstreaming the rest of GNOME Shell mobile 🙌
Huge thanks to everyone involved in review, especially @npub167y…52er, Carlos Garnacho, @npub1zkw…fgkj, Bilal Elmoussaoui, @npub1fx9…z4hg, and [@swick](https://hachyderm.io/@swick )!

Here's the blog post I've been trying not to write for the past year.
We need to start discussing the events surrounding @npub133l…pfxe's ban last year with the entire community, and unfortunately the only way to do that is in public. Here's hoping this is the first step towards that wider discussion, and an eventual resolution.

I guess this exposes the limits to this kind of approach to use indirect regulations to enact change, rather than intervening directly.
If you want public administration to use free software you need to actually *invest* in it up-front, and long-term, otherwise it's just extra bureaucracy for every individual agency to justify why they're sticking with the old proprietary thing.

isn't this just open core with more steps?
Sounds to me like the plan is to have proprietary enterprise features to limit what you can do with the app, but that that still comes with all the structural downsides of open core.

As someone who worked with VR a bit for university ca. 2017 it's been interesting to see the Apple media ecosystem go through a full cycle of VR productivity discourse in less than a year.
Last year: "Meh, seems like a gamer thing"
This spring: "Woah, what if I could use this instead of a laptop"
Once people bought it: "Actually, turns out the resolution and input precision are still waaaay off"
After it was in a drawer for 3 months: "This is useless for anything except actual 3D content"

First time ever that a menu QR code is scanned successfully on a Linux mobile phone?
Huge kudos @npub1fx9…z4hg, Bilal Elmoussaoui, [@maximiliano](https://floss.social/@maximiliano ) and everyone else who made this possible 🙌

I've been trying to do more Circle reviews lately, and I've noticed that a lot of apps have very similar papercuts. Some of the classics are:
- Not using the standard keyboard shortcuts (e.g. Ctrl+, for opening preferences) https://developer.gnome.org/hig/reference/keyboard.html
- Missing a11y labels on buttons
- Longer blocks of text not being screen reader accessible
- Focus borders being weirdly shaped/glitchy
Maybe having a little checklist for app devs to do themselves before applying could catch some of these?

You know what they say, can't have recursion without recursion
