NextBSD 27.0 is getting closer, with only 13 of 34 epics left. 🚀 Gershwin is the default desktop. Should it be the only one at launch, or do you want another option too? Vote here 👇 github.com/orgs/nextbsd/disc…

Just running some various AppImages on NextBSD just by clicking them. No big deal or anything. 🤣

By December I should have a desktop ISO with a full set of drivers including NVIDIA that can be written to CD-R sized media.

Thanks @EpicGames for publishing EpicGamesLauncher as an #AppImage for 🐧 #Linux. One app = one file, simple.

Reconnect with #Colloquy, the IRC client you may have been using on the Mac. Only this time it's running on the Gershwin Desktop, powered by #GNUstep

Is it me, or has AppImage just soared in popularity in the AI era? Also, a coincidence that AppImage starts with the same letters.

Gershwin Desktop is learning a few new tricks. Today: Miniaturized windows in the Dock. #GNUstep

Here @christitustech just built the #AppImage on the livestream. Way to go!
We have to look at these live and try them out while looking at their development nitter.cf/i/broadcasts/1nJOLQZke…

How d you like this for a change? This is Gershwin Desktop, written in #GNUstep, and we are just getting started.

Just fixed Vespucci to use my new native webkit port for GNUstep, also shown on screen native quassel port, native windowmanager.

Sometimes it's good to peel back the layers of an onion. I have been doing a POC to improve the native window manager solution for Gershwin to work on stock #gnustep and it now works with any GSTheme. Now this can be used as a fully native alternative to windowmaker. youtube.com/watch?v=wB0PVTdT…
