    Honestly, not much changed since GNOME 40.

    Is it a bad thing? No

    Do I want more changes? Also no

    The only thing missing from GNOME for me is proper dynamic tiling. I’m trying Forge extension, but it feels clunky

    I especially waited for the Parental control features to land in GNOME 50. Great to see they made it into the release. Now I don’t need aditional tools to enforce bedtime for my son.

    Document annotations in the Document viewer is also a nice thing. But I would rather have proper Signing support via certificates for professional use cases.

      It would be nice to see web filtering as part of it. A DNS like 1.1.1.3 can easily be bypassed.

        I think that this should be done on the network level by providing a DNS Server via DHCP or include filtering in your router if you are afraid of users changing the DNS Server (but maybe it’s better to lock the network settings in this case).

        But I see that not every User has the possibility or ability to do it this way. therefor having the option to do it in the OS is feasible for these users.

            As soon as the kids get smart enough to circumvent such measures, they hopefully know their way arround the Internet

              Most other circumventions require the child to know what they’re doing, while a mobile hotspot is something they would naturally use when outside of the house.

    Are windows full circles now? /s

    It’s funny to me how enormous the radius is on window corners. It’s kind of hard for me to take it seriously.

      And the padding. Legit when the corner of a terminal makes the bottom line of text difficult to read, they have gone too far
