For those who don't know, this feature will allow gnome to remember the positions of applications so they're restored when the app is started again.
From the AMA, someone suggested
Yeah some Up/Download + simple management API would be really nice. Since Proton is loved a lot among programmers, I'm very sure there'll be a lot of people in the community to create some implementation their own (including me)
And Andy(CEO) replied
This is actually good/important input. We went this direction with Proton VPN on Linux and the first version was a community built version which as OK. Eventually, we had to take the effort in-house to ensure it was sufficiently well maintained and keeping up with the latest features, but it was still a goo way to get started. We will indeed consider this for Proton Drive also, although it is a more complicated product (includes complex parts like sync engine and version conflict resolution logic, etc). -Andy
Also, when pointed about Henry,Andy replied
Yes, we know Henry, he should have access to the API specs/docs and he has a direct line of communication with us. -Andy
So all hope is not i would say. And i would prefer rclone and apps based over than than electron wrappers tbh.

Reading the STF news feels exciting after a few weeks of them not present. It makes me so happy that GNOME and Libadwaita, along with flatpaks are attracting a lot of developers into contriibuting and experimenting their ideas.
Kerala have a big contribution to this since all the school IT labs + government offices here use ubuntu or its slightly modified versions. Wish if every state did so.
Glad they also started to include images which makes easy to really understand the changes, especially the UI related ones.
True. I'm glad that the multiple lemmy releases during past months didn't make the app unusable.
These TWIG issues really shows how much Sovereign Tech Fund boosts the accessibility and modernisation for GNOME. What would have been if all countries started spending such an amount for OSS projects
A very well written blog. Never knew what us he difference between adwaita and gnome, and this blog made clear exactly that.
there are many interesting one's for me this issue, mainly :
- Drag and drop of folders will now work with sandboxed applications (Drop a folder from Nautilus onto Amberol)
- In the works is accessing USB devices with per-device, per-app permissions.
- Adding CSS variables support to GTK.
- Grouping notifications by app in GNOME Shell.
- CalDAV/CardDAV support in Gnome Online accounts.
Hope we get many of these in coming few months.
If you are interested learning more, there was a veritasium video about analog chips where he quite well explained the working of and the usecases .
This is what i call a feature packed release.
