Quantifying Gnome contributions by frequency, tenure, and affiliated companies: https://hpjansson.org/blag/2020/12/16/on-the-graying-of-gnome/ Whilst the methodology can't be perfect, it's a nice way of measuring contribution trends.

Bringing a 'command palette' (M-x in Emacs, Cmd-P in Atom) to all Gtk applications in Gnome! https://github.com/p-e-w/plotinus I'd love too see this UI paradigm be pervasive. The ribbon in office is helpfully contextually, but text lists with filtering scale superbly.

Gnome has moved to Gitlab! https://about.gitlab.com/2018/05/31/welcome-gnome-to-gitlab/ It's interesting to see how many major FOSS projects are moving to hosted VCS services. Overall it's probably a natural consequence of specialisation, and Gitlab is largely open source (avoiding lock-in).
