Gnome needs your support with a donate button.

How is this any different then the shit that Microsoft is pulling?

This was on Fedora 43, BTW.

Several open source projects do this, I use Hyprland and it does the same. These are community supported projects made by unpaid volunteers for your benefit. It’s definitely not the same.

    Well, technically it is the same, it's just just done with decorum and restraint. I have no problem with giving to Gnome since I use and appreciate their software. I guess it is just the optics with all the MS hate going around.
