Love the work being done on Phosh, anyone have an idea for when it'll start being merged into gnome-shell / mutter?

[–] [email protected] 16 points 5 months ago

Probably never. Gnome is working on their own mobile port. If I'm not mistaken this is partly due to the fact that Phosh and Gnome diverged too far from one another. Although I think some Phosh code is being reused.

Gnome Shell and Mutter are based on completely different technology(GTK instead of Clutter) and compositors(wlroots instead of Mutter). There is nothing that can be merged from one to the other.

Being able to add custom quick settings buttons is super interesting. I don't like having to search through the apps menu when I quickly want to run one of my scripts.

Shouldn't purism be listed as the sponsor of the project?

Depends, guessing from this conversation I'd assume there's currently nothing to thank for.

And because of that: If you like Phosh, consider giving back:
