Pro-tip: Write code for the reviewers. Helping them helps you.
A very specific case: Separate code movement from other changes to independent commits.
As a reviewer, checking code movement with 'git show --color-moved' takes mere seconds rather than minutes. Checking subsequent changes on top is easy as well. Combined, it's much, much harder.
And remember, it might be you looking at the same commits years down the line.
…and here are my #FreeSoftware bits for September 24:

@me Note that this should not be necessary if all things work correctly. From what you wrote there it looks like a bug in the Librem5 sound theme package.

@wannoye Maybe this one is interesting to you as it involves moving a bit of C code to stand alone Rust program to ease testing apps: https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/phosh/-/merge_requests/1291
@QuadRadical @isyourbrainFOSS you can just disable the service.
@wannoye @phosh @BHSPitMonkey @Gnome I'd pick what bothers you the most. "First issue" is highly subjective as it very much depends on what someone already knows, is interested in, device used, phase of the moon. If your pick turns out too complex maintainers will likely help to either simplify or pick something close.
@krille @arunmani
From a technological PoV I don't think there's much to merge as they're quite different stacks: GNOME shell uses the St toolkit for UI and mutter as compositor in one processes while phosh uses GTK for the UI (also the OSK) and a wlroots based compositor all running as separate processes (and I think everyone has good reasons for doing it that way).

At @phosh, we are working on making the quick-settings panel more responsive and snappy.
This new layout lets you access the preferences (i.e. status pages) quickly and in a responsive manner.
Feel free to join the merge request discussion (https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/phosh/-/merge_requests/1498) and test this new feature, so we can land it soon!
@LovePoison @isyourbrainFOSS It's part of feedbackd 0.5.0. Uploaded to Debian already, other distros will likely pick it up too soon.
@StefanKarstens ….und ein weiterer Spin um Kaptialmärkte als was positives zu verkaufen und Abhängigkeiten dahin zu erzeugen. Man rettet dann icht mehr die bösen Banken sondern die gute Rente 😃

A new issue of #ThisWeekInGNOME is now online!
#167 Linking Apps
https://thisweek.gnome.org/posts/2024/09/twig-167/
@peja @isyourbrainFOSS #feedbackd is DE independent so the slider should work just as well. But AFAIK phosh is currently the only shell implementing the status icon to track the current profile and sending out feedback on notifications via feedbackd. So you'd lack that part (but it would still work for apps like calls that send feedback via feedbackd directly).

We're currently collecting a bunch of issues to then work on in the next two quarters:
https://framagit.org/linuxphoneapps/linuxphoneapps.frama.io/-/issues
If you have further ideas, comments or just general input, please chime in!
Thanks to the bits and pieces collected by @isyourbrainFOSS we can now support the alert slider on the #Onplus6/6T to toggle #feedbackd's full/quiet/silent profiles.
@craftyguy @mhenson @yeswap you can use Glib's resource overlays https://docs.gtk.org/gio/struct.Resource.html has some pointers.

#Linux OpenPrinting #CUPS vulnerabilities
Use the following command to determine if cups-browsed is running:
$ sudo systemctl status cups-browsed
If the result includes "Active: inactive (dead)" then the exploit chain is halted and the system is not vulnerable
If the result is "running" or "enabled" then the system may be vulnerable.
Mitigation is simple, especially in any environment where printing is not needed.
$ sudo systemctl stop cups-browsed
$ sudo systemctl disable cups-browsed

For those running #postmarketos edge on a device with working camera - the number of which is raising fast enough to make me lose track - and you want to play around with the great new #gnomecamera / #gnomesnapshot #gnome47 release: you'll need to install gst-plugins-rs manually until some build issues are fixed.
The release features *heavily* improved rendering performance, mainly thanks to improvements in #gtk4 and the #gstreamer gtk4paintablesink (also for apps using the aperture library)
@cosmin Interesting. What threw me off was the tone off the message. I mean I didn't violate their terms of service or anything (how would I without an approved account :smile:). So it seems they already have enough customers.
