Overview of some of the new features in the upcoming GNOME 47 release.
Can you put different wallpaper on different workspaces yet?
Seems frivolous, but I see the purpose from a multi-monitor panorama wallpaper aspect. I wonder how hard it would be to write a shell extension to do this.
Gnome 47 has been a bit rough for me so far. Firefox is really buggy with mutter47.beta, the resizing is super laggy. But that’s the only major thing bothering me.
Edit: The Firefox bug was fixed with a fresh reinstall. Not sure if an update would have fixed it because I tested that new bootupd feature which caused GRUB to break.
I experienced similar resizing issues with 47 and Flatpak Firefox, but in my case I was forcing FF to use Xwayland to accommodate my password manager. Once I enabled Wayland support in Flatseal, performance was back to normal.
That’s interesting, I’m on the Firefox flatpak from Flathub too and had the issue on Wayland and XWayland.
Strange… I’m using it for some time and I didn’t experience anything like this.
