GNOME 45 Set to Launch with Native Accent Colors and More Exciting Features

GNOME, one of the most popular desktop environments for Linux-based operating systems, has announced the release plan for its upcoming version 45. The GNOME developer team has revealed that the new version is set to be launched on September 20, 2023.

The release of GNOME 45 is eagerly anticipated by Linux enthusiasts, as it promises to bring several new features and improvements. One of the most exciting rumors about the release is that it will include native accent colors in GNOME Shell and GTK apps. This feature has been in high demand by users for a long time, and it looks like GNOME 45 might finally make it a built-in feature. Currently, support for accent colors is only possible in GNOME through extensions.

Alexander Mikhaylenko, a GNOME contributor, has submitted a merge request for the feature, which has increased speculation that it will be included in the upcoming release. If it is, users will be able to customize the color of their GNOME desktop, making it more personal and enjoyable.

In addition to the new features, GNOME 45 will also have a special codename - "Riga". The name is inspired by the host city of the GUADEC (GNOME Users And Developers European Conference) 2023 event, which will take place in Riga, Latvia from July 26th to July 31st. The conference is an annual gathering of GNOME users and developers from all over the world, and it is a major event in the GNOME community.

The announcement of the release plan for GNOME 45 has generated a lot of excitement among Linux users, who are eagerly waiting for the new version to arrive. With the promise of new features and improvements, it looks like GNOME 45 will be a major release that will enhance the user experience for the GNOME desktop environment.
