A great update just landed in NaSC, one of our favorite apps for elementary OS. More functions, better conversions, and a fresh new icon. #GetItOnAppCenter http://appcenter.elementary.io/com.github.parnold-x.nasc/

This is great news for the GNOME Foundation, the GNOME desktop, Linux-based operating systems, and Open Source in general. Excellent work and thank you to GNOME, Neil McGovern, and Shearman & Sterling LLP for this outcome.

Good stuff is coming to AppCenter this month. Look for faster loading, better keyboard navigation, improvements to how plugins are displayed, and better interaction with network proxies. 👀

David has been an absolute machine. Gonna be a good sized performance/quality-of-life release of AppCenter this month

A recent post at @omgubuntu@twitter.com got some flak because a couple Ubuntu flavors didn't have screenshots included.

Yet again this is where I preach the value of marketing, even simple things like having good assets for press. Yes, it matters.

We’re aware of some intermittent issues with displaying and installing curated AppCenter apps on elementary OS at the moment. Our team is on it and the issue should be resolved shortly.

Despite postponing the in-person #AppCenterForEveryone sprint due to COVID-19, we still got a lot done. Read about it and check out some prototype screenshots on the blog. https://blog.elementary.io/appcenter-for-everyone-remote-sprint/

Our original time for the #AppCenterForEveryone sprint has ended, and we did get some important work done while working remotely—but we still plan to schedule an in-person sprint to really dial things in and get more substantial work done. Blog post incoming within the next week.
