If you remember that desktop picture widget for GNOME I wrote about last year, but found it a bit too basic for your personalisation preferences, you weren’t alone.

There shouldn’t be any breaking changes either, per the release notes. While it might sound like a sudden revival of a legacy effort, LightDM is still widely used by Linux distributions and desktops. LightDM: what is it? LightDM is a backend that handles logging […]
