Nice overview! I appreciate the way you showed off some of the visual changes. Not all of the changes have screenshots easily available online, so thanks for that. In case you're curious what Kerberos is: it's the single-sign-on (SSO) authentication protocol used in Microsoft Active Directory, among other things. If you're a student at school or a corporate employee, you probably have a global username/password provided to you, with which you can log into any Windows PC on the network and immediately get access all your network drives, system settings, etc. If you want to perform the same SSO actions on a Linux PC, then GNOME's Kerberos support should have you covered. Hope this is helpful.
epiphany browser has saved me so much as a web developer without having needed to install mac os in the virtual box just fix stupid bugs. It is no 100% similar to how safari works but at least under the hood they both uses the same engine.
I miss the glossy and glass looking days of GUIs, like win7 and kde 4. After like 2014-2015 everything started to look like paper in the name of minimalism which indeed resulted in laziness I think.
Waiting on the accent color for awhile. I am still on Gnome 41 with Fedora 35. It very fast w alot of features. Just got the hang of btrfs system and zram plus wayland working alot better with the gpu too. Gnome 42 changing to dark and light modes does not reach that balance and you must match legacy theme with new Adwaita theme windows just look terrible. After Accent Colors maybe the ability to change the windows title bar colors will come. Alot of apps are coming with the ability to change too. Step in a good direction
I just installed Ubuntu latest, and my gnome-shell is 47. But the UI isn't like this. As I'm new so I don't know how and where to get this theme. Help me.
No appindicator. No server side decorations. Gnome is still broken by design. I love the looks. But I am just tired of getting stuff that isn't necessary while the most important stuff remains broken. Broken interface in smaller screens seems to be addressed. File manager still crashes every single window if you remove a directory that is currently open on it.
All of the "gnome actually le bad" elitists have nothing better to do all day than shitting on the most polished and streamlined desktop experience for casual computer users and linux newbies
It is going to stay. Gnome is still one of the easier and most cohesive desktops envs out there. It could be so much better if they just stopped doing stupid stuff. No Appindicator is a broken state. It is broken. That is final. Not using it is stupid, and it is better to use an in imperfect solution than no solution. They are so stupidly opinionated on useless stuff that it is frustrating. I want a cohesive desktop with the gnome design, but that does stuff in a practical way.
Unusable HDR implement, how's that an unbelievably awesome comeback? They have been developing HDR support for a long time, but it hasn't been implemented properly yet. Why do they still refuse to implement App indicator? Do they know that how many people have to install the app indicator extension which breaks when a new Gnome is released.

I'm and avid Gnomie. Gnome for life.
I really wish the dark theme would look like total black, it would be awesome for OLED screens like some laptops

That's a very interesting piece of information for me. Thanks for sharing.

yeah Windows 7 GUI was the best ihmo

Why is the mouse movement so jittery? That gives off a terrible impression of gnome (and Linux) for newbies that may stumble upon the video
whole video is poor fps
probably recording was done with gnome's default recording tool, it is terrible not gonna lie
No, OBS. Using GNOME boxes to virtualise. I'm pretty sure OBS is not at fault.
When i install fedora 41 i didn't get that latest gnome 47 wallpaper
Depends on what they provide
I just installed Ubuntu latest, and my gnome-shell is 47. But the UI isn't like this. As I'm new so I don't know how and where to get this theme. Help me.
The UI is modified to suit Ubuntu's style
Ubuntu's Gnome is modified, if you want a vanilla gnome experience try fedora.

You can polish a turd but it's still a turd. And that's basically modern GNOME.
How you try it
Download gnome os nightly
Run Arch to get the latest Gnome.
Nothing changes. Terrible DE ;(
It has no future

As for your first point, things take time.
For your second point, I agree.
@@GsMultiverse They have been developing it for a long long time, just too long.
they say color management is coming in 48
