individual project updates are developer-submitted via an automated process, not written by “the GNOME project.” Normally someone would have called this out before it was published, but it must have been missed. We’ll pass along the feedback.

Since the GNOME 50 release, there has been some misinfo going around. Let's clear it up:
Q: Does GNOME 50 support systemd-homed?
A: No, GNOME doesn't support homed (yet!!)
Q: Did GNOME drop Xwayland support?
A: No, we only dropped the X11 session. You can still use X11 apps on GNOME

Q: Did GTK drop X11 support?
A: No, GTK 3 and 4 still support X11. Support was deprecated in GTK 4 and will be removed in GTK 5, which right now is in its planning phase; however, once GTK 5 is released, GTK 4 will still be supported for many years to come

we used to say a “legal name” was required in some places, but no, we have never done ID verification. Membership is based on demonstrable contribution and social proof, where existing members vouch for new applicants.
After consulting with and discussing within the community (and seeking legal clarification of our obligations under California/US nonprofit law), we updated our process to explicitly not require “legal” names, instead emphasizing that applicants just use… their name.

2026-04-22 15:00:46 UTC

Recently we celebrated Trans Day of Visibility, but words alone aren't enough. If you want to apply for GNOME Foundation membership you don't need to provide your legal name, you can use your actual name!
We recognise the cruel reality that many trans people's legal names are deadnames.

Les applications GNOME portent des noms simples et génériques, tels que « Calculatrice » ou « Visionneur d’images ». Les applications tierces développées pour GNOME peuvent être nommées au gré de leurs créateurs et sont généralement un peu plus ludiques. « Impression » est une application tierce, qui n'a pas été développée par GNOME.

our issue tracker can get flooded with spam as it is, so a completely anonymous issue reporting flow would only multiply the issue—leading to developers spending all of their time drowning in spam and no time actually developing things. We’re sorry if that is inconvenient for you.

Hi!
These t-shirts were only available during FOSDEM. Given the interest we might bring these or other similar items to other conferences where we will be present.
We don't have the logistics to send them unfortunately.

Are you a #GNOME volunteer? Tell us your 2025 highlights!
Do you know that some companies will match your volunteer hours with GNOME providing $10-$25 per hour to the GNOME Foundation? Some can offer up to $15k/year.
If you have volunteered for GNOME, this is a great way to help #GNOME additionally through your efforts.
Help us sustainably fund GNOME for the future!
