GNOME’s Nautilus file manager is finally matching the behavior of other file managers like KDE’s Dolphin and Xfce’s Thunar with a keyboard shortcut for copying and pasting files.
This Week in GNOME highlighted a notable albeit one could argue long overdue change for GNOME Files / Nautilus: Ctrl+Insert and Shift+Insert support for copying and pasting files.
Most of the exciting GNOME changes are in mutter rather than the shell.
This release we got a lot of efficiency and performance improvements which are exciting but not news headline clickbait exciting.
I’ve read about deletion of x11 support entirely. I hope this will lead to more focus on wayland protocols.
