If you are a GNOME fan, I have some extremely exciting news. You see, as of today, GNOME 41 is officially here! There are many new changes, such as enhanced multitasking settings and the inclusion of a new remote desktop client called "Connections." Most importantly, however, the developers promise GNOME 41 includes noticeable performance improvements, particularly for those using Wayland.

"The most notable changes this in release include an improved Software app, new multitasking settings, and enhanced power management features. With these changes, GNOME is smarter, more flexible, and offers a richer and more engaging experience than ever before. The new release also comes with significant improvements for developers, including a new developer documentation website, a major new version of the Human Interface Guidelines, new features in the Builder IDE, GTK 4 enhancements, and much more," explains The GNOME Project.

Unfortunately, while GNOME 41 was technically released earlier today, most people cannot truly run it yet. As is typical, you must wait for your favorite Linux distribution to provide it to you.

What really annoys developers about GNOME version updates is they always break extensions. Extension compatibility isn't guaranteed.

And updates to extensions don't always coincide with the arrival of a new version of GNOME. This is a long known issue.
