**Solution**: Apparently it is by design! I had to use “Unblank” extension to change the behaviour. *** Hi everyone, I'm experiencing an issue with GNOME 46 where my screen goes black immediately after locking. Here's a bit more detail about my setup and the troubleshooting steps I've already taken: System: Manjaro Linux Release: 24.0.4 Display: Single monitor setup (1920x1080 resolution) Steps Taken: Checked and adjusted Settings > Power > Blank screen and Settings > Privacy > Screen Lock settings. Ensured monitor configuration is correct in Settings > Displays. Updated system. Disabled all GNOME Shell extensions. Verified GNOME Shell and related packages are up to date. Reviewed logs using `journalctl -xe` but found nothing conclusive. Reset GNOME settings with `dconf reset -f /org/gnome/`. Checked and updated graphics drivers. Disabled lock screen fade animation with `gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.screensaver lock-delay 0`. Despite all these efforts, the issue persists. Has anyone else encountered this problem or have any suggestions on how to fix it? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

It's exhausting and demanding but it's easy. I hope I'll make it to my first real app! I can read and write code but I have only basic experience in app development. But the process is well documented and easy to understand. Thanks!
I Gnome 44, when I double click a archive, the archive is extracted in a subdir of the current directory. Is it possible to change that behavior, so that a window opens with the contents of the clicked archive?
My usual workflow involves quite a good deal of side-by-side windows: For each "thing" I'm working on, viewing, doing, I use a separate desktop w/ all the required windows in there. For example when coding, for each project I usually have got an Emacs window, a Firefox window, often a Nautiuls window and occasionally an Alacirtty window open. Managing that kind of window placement has always been a hassle for me. The default snap-to-edge in Gnome works quite well but is limited. --- That's until I found out about [Tactile](https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/4548/tactile/) a few days ago: it's a Gnome Shell extension that helps you place windows in a configurable tile set. I've been using it for a couple of days now and it has really upped my workflow substantially. Here's a shout out to the developer 👏 - Practical and smart idea - Stable implementation - Easy to use - gets out of your way - Reasonably configurable Definitely worth trying out ✅
I saw the issue open [here](https://tracker.ceph.com/issues/47425) regarding a configurable Zstandard compression level for Nautilus Compressor, but I'm not sure how to reveal Zstandard compression in Nautilus as a compressor option in the first place. Is this possible? If so, how can I do it? I'm already aware nautilus-scripts is a thing, but I'm looking for a solution specifically in this dropdown menu. Thanks!

This is a fork of QGnomePlatform updated to the new LibAdwaita look There's no flatpak version yet (which is why it doesn't work in flatpak applications) but the developer said on Reddit that he's gonna make one
Is there a way to make those title bars look more like GTK 4? Here's what they look like:  It doesn't really fit into the desktop because of the gradient and the buttons.
I recently purchased, ripped, and almost finished transcoding the entire series of Friends. I’m currently in the process of converting subtitles with Subtitle Edit. I’d like to save myself a bit of work by taking the last 13-14 characters off the ends of the file names. For example, I’d like to take track13[spa] off of the following filename: 03x10 - The One Where Rachel Quits_track13_[spa].sup Or is this not possible with Nautilus?
