A Look At The Many Improvements & New Features In GNOME 3.32

Very nice with the performance improvements. The animations are smoother. Unfortunately still last too long because the defined duration is too long, so you still have to wait.

I wonder if animation speed is configurable via Tweaks or at least dconf.

Gnome 3 after all these years... still a dumpster fire.

Runs smoother here than any other desktop here and doesn't have any tearing issues with NVIDIA cards.
Also I love activities. No other desktop provides something like that.

Is this hitting Fedora 29 or Fedora 30?

Fedora 30 only.

Luckily no one uses these Vulkan / OpenGL fullscreen applications nowadays, so no need to fix any bugs with alt+tabbing:

It says much about how Gnome is used when such bugs aren't fixed...
On the bright side, we have some better alternatives.

Don't have any of these issues here...

Using Gnome nowadays is about to click double/triple times to access the things you reached easily in the past, the design obsession to hide everything...
That big icons in the apps menu looks like a baby toy game, so inefficient also that sub-folders to group apps, vague and cumbersome at same time.

Yeah. I use dash-to-dock extension to show quick access programs on the dock without going full-screen app show app.. plus the extension to show bluetooth devices, plus the extension to select sound card assignment to apps, and then it is good

IIRC, Enlightenment can turn anything into a drop down program.

Yup, that's true. And there's a KWin script for KDE that provides the same functionality.

Also, I agree with your Konsole argument. Yakuake hasn't had much love and it's a little bit buggy, while Konsole is still improving. A drop-down mode would make it *the* perfect Yakuake replacement.

[Vistaus]

Tilix can do the F12 terminal that drops down.

As can Yakuake, Deepin Terminal, Tilda, Guake and a bunch of others.

You're supposed to be using GNOME3 on a tablet!

[TingPing]

That's a huge deal!
Despite continuous posts saying that the next Gnome release will better support Wayland with the Nvidia binary, each release proves to be a disappointment.
When will Gnome/Wayland work properly at full speed with the Nvidia binary?

(I get it, maybe my next GPU will be AMD, but Nvidia hardware has been superior for a long time.)

That is up to Nvidia obviously. Supposedly they are still working on getting hw accelerated xwayland working but they have so many other bugs who knows.
