🖥️ GNOME lucrează la salvarea și restaurarea sesiunilor, dar funcția nu va ajunge în GNOME 51!
Echipa de dezvoltare GNOME face progrese importante în crearea unui sistem nativ de Session Save & Restore (salvarea și restaurarea automată a aplicațiilor și ferestrelor deschise după repornire), însă implementarea completă mai are nevoie de timp.
✨ Detalii despre nouă funcționalitate GNOME:
🔄 Ce va face Session Restore:
• Va permite sistemului să rețină aplicațiile deschise, poziția ferestrelor și starea acestora înainte de oprire sau repornire, redeschizându-le automat la următoarea autentificare.
🛠️ De ce durează mai mult:
• Arhitectura modernă bazată pe Wayland și izolarea aplicațiilor prin Flatpak (sandboxing) necesită noi protocoale de securitate și API-uri speciale (portals) pentru ca aplicațiile să își poată salva starea în siguranță fără a compromite confidențialitatea.
⏳ Lansarea este amânată:
• Deși lucrările sunt avansate, funcționalitatea nu este suficient de matură pentru a fi inclusă în versiunea GNOME 51, echipa preferând să prioritizeze stabilitatea și funcționarea impecabilă în locul unei lansări grăbite.
Un pas mare înainte pentru mediul de desktop GNOME, care va aduce o experiență de lucru mult mai fluidă pe Linux! 🚀
