No sense in re-inventing the wheel when there are well engineered libraries that can be used instead! - Joshua 2026-01-11T19:21:02Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsx05y275ehsuand4xqe7tccwrdxxt8n0708srg6ynu5n0n6vk222szyzp5vurulg4c22md4utf284eswj5h8fg943qgsc6892m6ha6pvwev4jza4f In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsfaa5wxwxtkje9d2dn0tdpmwaxujyj072dss5lk6m3uqacr0pjj2s3h364u'>nevent1q…364u</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Yep, KDE Frameworks have been absolutely fantastic, and I know both <span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/npub192gpl4qp9rzw5ecpyks63rr8j45g9uudctx0ad6gv0nkne9qcuuq4qkhdh" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>Evan Maddock</span> (<span class="italic">npub192g…khdh</span>)</a></span> and I have enjoyed working with KDE folks in the various Matrix rooms.

We just put out Budgie 10.10-preview.1, intended for packagers (e.g. Fedora and Ubuntu) to start shipping in preparation for their releases next year.<br/><br/>Budgie 10.10-preview.1 is (as the name implies) a preview release and features unfinished components like Budgie Display Configurator, but still excited to ship this! 🎉 <br/><br/><a href="https://github.com/BuddiesOfBudgie/budgie-desktop/releases/tag/v10.10-preview.1">https://github.com/BuddiesOfBudgie/budgie-desktop/releases/tag/v10.10-preview.1</a><br/><br/>Also don&#39;t think about checking what Budgie Display Services / Configurator are written in. 😉 2025-11-17T19:54:13Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsxzqux08jd56a6683n94snu7u24cyw79kay7mp0x667sprfep7plczyzp5vurulg4c22md4utf284eswj5h8fg943qgsc6892m6ha6pvwevkk3a2x While we are hard at work wrapping up #Budgie 10.10 (improved session launching, wrapping up display configuration, and some last little fixes), we have just put out a Budgie 10.9.3 release to align with changes in GNOME 49.x.<br/><br/>Release notes available at <a href="https://github.com/BuddiesOfBudgie/budgie-desktop/releases/tag/v10.9.3">https://github.com/BuddiesOfBudgie/budgie-desktop/releases/tag/v10.9.3</a><br/><br/>Coming to a distro near you!
