This fund is attributed monthly by votes from Microsoft's employees, and it had already granted some money to systemd and leaflet, the small framework to implement interactive maps on the web. The fund for may has finally been attributed, and it's going to GNOME, so the desktop environment will get 10 000 US dollars to work on whatever they want. This might not seem like much, but this could fund a few months of development work, maybe for projects like accent colors, the recoloring API for libadwaita, or Mobile GNOME shell. Why GNOME, though? Well it looks like MS employees who want to use Linux can only use Ubuntu LTS, since some of their specific software only runs on that, so they use GNOME by default. It only makes sense that they'd want to reward, and improve something they use themselves. And now you can all comment that it's dirty money and that it's going to taint GNOME. Personally I'm glad it got the money 👏 SUPPORT THE CHANNEL: Get access to an exclusive weekly podcast, vote on the next topics I cover, and get your name in the credits: YOUTUBE: null Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/thelinuxexperiment Or, you can donate whatever you want: https://paypal.me/thelinuxexp?locale.x=fr_FR 🏆 FOLLOW ME ELSEWHERE: Linux news in Youtube Shorts format: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCtZp0mK9IBrpS2-jNzMZmoA Join us on our Discord server: https://discord.gg/xK7ukavWmQ Twitter : http://twitter.com/thelinuxEXP Mastodon: https://mastodon.social/web/@thelinuxEXP Pixelfed: https://pixelfed.social/TLENick My Gaming on Linux Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaw_Lz7oifDb-PZCAcZ07kw 📷 GEAR I USE: Sony Alpha A6600 Mirrorless Camera: https://amzn.to/30zKyn7 Sigma 56mm Fixed Prime Lens: https://amzn.to/3aRvK5l Logitech MX Master 3 Mouse: https://amzn.to/3BVI0Od Bluetooth Space Grey Mac Keyboard: https://amzn.to/3jcJETZ Logitech Brio 4K Webcam: https://amzn.to/3jgeTh9 LG Curved Ultrawide Monitor: https://amzn.to/3pcTVDH Logitech White Speakers: https://amzn.to/3n6wSb0 Xbox Controller: https://amzn.to/3BWmIA3 Amazon Links are affiliate codes and generate small commissions to support the channel This video is distributed under the Creative Commons Share Alike license.
