Ліво-стороння орієнтація кнопки "закрити" в Firefox Так як в класичному середовищі GNOME я часто промахуюсь між "змінити гучність" в правому кутку і кнопкою "закрити" програму (а це часто буває браузер із морем вкладок і заповненими там формами) мною було прийняте рішення розмістити кнопки закривання...

macos apps, all with differently rounded corners

but mac gets gtk. shout out the #gtk and #adwaita devs. ❤️

gtk on macos isn't just pretty... it's *prettier and more consistent* than native macos tooling, whatever "native" macos means in 2026.

the gtk app looks more native than 7/9 mac apps i had running when i took that screenshot. here's why.

Practically just waiting for #Gnome 50 to release to give it another shot. Stabilization of VRR and fractional scaling, plus so many improvements to the Gnome Mutter compositor make me curious.

Weirdly this is a controversial opinion, but I absolutely love the #Adwaita design language and […]

Screenshot of Dippi in a dark style on the desktop, where the two screens are side-by-side. There is a subtle purple tint to the app. The left half of the app has inputs for screen size, resolution, and type while the right size reads: “Analyze a Display. For LoDPI, a DPI range of 90–150 is ideal for desktops while 124–156 is ideal for laptops. For HiDPI, 180–300 is ideal for desktops while 248–312 is ideal for laptops.”

Screenshot of Dippi on the desktop in a light style. It has a subtle purple tint. The left side is filled out for a 13.3" 1920×1080 laptop display, and the right side reads: Potentially Problematic

It looks good on desktop, too! It’s the same size as before, but uses the space better and can adapt to any window size (tiling!).

I continue to push at the accent color tinting in my apps. I think it’s nice. Here, my computer has a purple accent.

A phone running Dippi, which is a display DPI/aspect ratio calculator. The screen shows the inputs for a 13.3" diagonal laptop display with a resolution of 1920×1080.

A phone showing the result for the display in the other image. It reads: “Potentially Problematic. Relatively high resolution, but not quite HiDPI. Text and UI may be too small by default, but forcing HiDPI would make them appear too large. The experience may be slightly improved by increasing the text size.” Below, it has the specs (16:9, 165 DPI, 1920×1080) and a prominent button to “share results.”

I finally did a little UI rewrite for Dippi 👀

Ubuntu 26.04 Will Look More Like Vanilla GNOME Shell Ubuntu’s default desktop is about to look more like upstream GNOME than it has in years — but before you panic unduly, I should stress that ...

**Ubuntu’s desktop is about to look more like upstream GNOME than it has in years — but lest you panic unduly, it’ll still look like Ubuntu.** The Yaru theme team — try saying that several times in a row — has embarked on a refactor of its GNOME Shell theme aimed at the next long-term support release, Ubuntu 26.04 LTS. Instead of maintaining a separate, customised stylesheet for GNOME Shell it will use the default GNOME Shell theme and apply changes on top. Thought they were already doing that? Not quite. **Yaru is a GTK, icon, sound and GNOME Shell theme. This article is on changes to the latter**. Currently, Ubuntu’s ‘Shell’ theme is structurally custom, i.e., the Yaru team maintains its own separate stylesheet. While this is based on the upstream stylesheet, and ‘syncs’ every 6 months, the Yaru team has manually patch, fit and adapt it each time. This can introduce minor visual inconsistencies as some bits of the updated upstream stylesheet are adapted for, but others bits aren’t — e.g., when Yaru was using different radii for calendar/notification applet than for desktop notifications. Hence the new approach, outlined in a pull request on the Yaru GitHub, is simpler: use symlinks to point directly at the default style files. This way, Yaru’s GNOME Shell styling goes from “custom theme that’s based on upstream” to “actual upstream, with Ubuntu overrides”. Ubuntu’s overrides will continue to offer specify its own typography (use the Ubuntu font and specific font sizes & weights); tweak panel and dock sizing (upstream is larger by default); and use an interface accent colour (Ubuntu orange by default). But other elements, like corner radius on panel applets, notifications and pop-overs or the shape, contrast and spacing of buttons in modal dialogs, etc will adopt their upstream settings. ### Why the change? Although it may sound like a game of musical chairs (the same thing, done a different way) it’s not without reason: to reduce the maintenance burden and veer closed to upstream’s design intentions. Ubuntu’s Yaru theme is developed by a community team, albeit with technical guidance from Canonical’s Marco Trevisan and input from the Canonical design team). This effort is to reduce their effort in maintaining the Shell-side component of the theme. Ubuntu desktop will look more ‘upstream’ in 26.04 But more importantly, it does mean that Ubuntu is presenting GNOME Shell _better_ : the way the people who design, build and undertake user-testing of GNOME Shell intend it to be. Adjusting radii, button spacing and fonts may sound inconsequential, but it adds up. If you’re testing Ubuntu 26.04 in the coming months, be sure to keep an eye out for the shape, spacing, and roundness of GNOME Shell UI elements, modal dialogs, pop-overs, buttons, and notifications to change, in keeping with upstream. Ubuntu-ification of GNOME Shell isn’t going away, it’s just becoming more considered using targeted overrides on the default stylesheet.

In Fedora 42 KDE Edition, the annoying bug with distorted and way too bug mouse cursors in GTK/libadwaita applications is finally gone :-)

The mouse cursor is now rendered identically in QT/KDE and GTK applications alike.

Nice!!

The following image offers a preview of the new font that has been introduced by GNOME developers for GNOME 48. The font, entitled Adwaita Sans, has been designed to replace the iconic Cantarell font, which had been the default font for GNOME for many years.

GNOME 48 arrived today for me and the first thing I did was choosing #Adwaita fonts for the UI and non-native apps, and it looks beautiful! :blobcattea:

I really liked Cantarell, but apparently it didn't have many of the latest font features :S

Kudos to @monster […]
