I bet they are concocting another Linux desktop holocaust

Hopefully they talk about a resolution regarding running JS engine on compositor thread.

I'm worried about PipeWire, and how much overhead it is going to have.

You know what happens, if you plug in an external projector using GNOME. So please use macOS or Windows for public speaches. Otherwise it may end in an embarrassment when talking about the "leading desktop on linux" or "the year of the desktop" or "leading technology".

Ah, the usual trolls with deep-seated mental health issues. Enjoy your weekend, losers ...

I'm keen to see the talk on gtk+4 and pipewire. I've already started playing around with gtk+4 and the porting effort is pretty mild for my apps

Only while the laptop is in suspend mode. It does not just crash by connecting a monitor/projector.

The shills are telling me it won't have a lot of it, and it's going to have hardware acceleration.
