I know nothing about #hdr, but thanks to #gnome48 I now have the ability to enable it for both my #workstation display (ASUS VP32UQ) and my #laptop (ThinkPad Z16 AMD).
I don't play games and use my computers for #music production, #graphic design, #video editing and so on.
So far I've noticed that with HDR turned on, everything looks a little more lifeless and brighter, maybe less contrasty. Is this the idea and does HDR make sense for my use case?

GNOME 48 was released yesterday with a battery charge limit option. It only supports specific laptops with a start/end charge threshold. In the future we hope to expand this by support the new charge_types kernel API in UPower. This requires existing drivers to be ported to this new kernel sysfs API. https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/upower/upower/-/issues/285

There are (sadly) still multiple out of tree drivers which could be mainlined to support a battery preservation option. But I haven't been able to get my hands on an Acer, Asus TUF, Gigabyte laptop to get this going.

Gnome 48 also brings so many improvements to Gnome Mobile.
Scrolling is just as smooth as it's on Android.
OSK and Touch text selection are better now.
And the cameras have started working on #Oneplus6
Overall, it's getting to where it is starting to feel like a real alternative 🤩️.

My dream of crawling away from the clutches of Big-Tech gets closer.
