We reached the 30,000 followers mark on Mastodon. This is an unexpected feat.

We have 140,000 people on our Twitter profile but that’s because Twitter/X is a bigger platform. I am pleasantly surprised to see so many people on an alternative, decentralized platform like Mastodon.

If you use Mastodon, do join us there.

💡 Quick Handy Tip

In GNOME, you can add custom directories to GNOME Search. First open Settings and go to SearchSearch Locations. Here, click on Add Locations and choose a location.

Now, add the locations you want to see as results in the overview. After that, whenever you search, these locations will appear in the results page if there’s a match. In this quick demo, I just showed you how to do it, on your computer, avoid adding locations like /etc, /usr, etc.

🤣 Meme of the Week

🗓️ Tech Trivia

On March 17, 1988, Apple sued Microsoft, claiming that Windows 2.0 copied the Macintosh GUI. Initially, a judge ruled that Microsoft had limited rights based on an earlier licensing agreement. The case went through appeals and eventually reached the U.S. Supreme Court, which declined to review it in 1995.

This decision effectively ended the legal battle, allowing Microsoft to continue using the Windows GUI.
