Hi,

yes, I'm surprised too.

A more typically GNOME app is midnight commander ;).

If you think I'm joking, take a look at

https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc
https://mail.gnome.org/archives/mc/2022-October/msg00017.html

I moved this topic to the off-topic list,
https://lists.sonic.net/mailman/listinfo/itsbuntoff , so the GNOME
mailing list discussion should continue there and/or for the next 7 days
at the GNOME mailing lists. It's off-topic for this list. I only wanted
to inform the users of this list, since GNOME is the default DE for
Ubuntu and a lot of users might not have noticed that GNOME moves from
mailing lists to a forum that suffers from gamification, "an allegedly
populist idea that actually benefits corporate interests over those of
ordinary people" [1].

Regards,
Ralf
