Thanks for this, @MichaelTunnell ! My, work’s been soooo busy. Whereas I thought I’d be around more, I’ve actually been around less. I’m more than six months behind on podcasts again lol! Hope folks in this lovely community have been well meantime!
I’ve been using Fedora 40 at work since I started in the role, almost five months ago, without any hitches whatsoever. Looking to upgrade to 41 in the coming weeks now. We’ve been using the standard Gnome spin though.
Excellent news about Inkscape. I’ve not used it in a while, so would be useful to see how the Gtk4 port has been coming along!
