The GNOME extensions site/service has been sluggish to the point of unuseable for me lately. It's behaving like a site under heavy load, although I have no data to back that up.

Taking a look at the current state of Debian testing. I've installed it on my old MacBook Pro and it's working nicely. It looks like Debian Trixie is going to be a really nice release.
Playing around with my old ThinkPad X220 tonight. This thing is over 10 years old and runs Debian 12 (GNOME) just fine. Also, I forgot just how good the keyboard is on this thing, it's amazing!
Fedora 41 upgrade 😚👌
The new default terminal application in Fedora is pretty. I love that it has the Dracula theme included in its theme options.
I purchased my current laptop a year ago. It’s a Lenovo ThinkPad T14s and it’s been nearly perfect for my needs. I got the model with 16GB of RAM, I should have opted for the 32GB model. My next laptop will have 32GB or more.
Looking forward to upgrading my daily driver to Fedora 41. I’ve been running 41 on a test system for the last month and it’s been solid.
Roughly 2 weeks ago, I changed my GNOME desktop to use Dark Style so that I could test some prefers-color-scheme CSS styles. I've not changed it back since.
Maybe I'm doing it wrong, but it is far easier to set a custom new tab page and create a custom search engine in Firefox on iOS than it is in Firefox on my Linux desktop. This does not seem right.
With the release of GNOME 47, I’m most looking forward to persistent remote desktop sessions. I use GNOME’s RDP feature under 46 and it’s pretty great, apart from the non persistent thing.
