I contributed to GNOME


I’ve been using Gnome with Fedora after they(Gnome 49) have improved the Fractional Scaling experience.

I just wanted to get more involved with Gnome and Linux in general since I’ve always been a consumer and I thought it would be even good if I could contribute and maybe boast about it in an interview 😜.

I started researching more about GTK, Gnome and all those related things. Even though docs are scattered everywhere, there is good content and I even made a GTK app named Brief using Python, its a GUI client for tldr-pages. Its on flathub if you wanna check it out.

Well ignore those, the thing I wanted to boast about is that I contributed to Gnome 😗! Specifically Gnome Files (Nautilus). It’s a small PR and I didn’t even think it would get accepted.
