Other performance metrics include removing #protections for #EndangeredSpecies that have *recovered* & restoring “historic [racist] names” to #landmarks. On his first day back in office, #Trump stripped #NorthAmerica’s tallest mountain of its #Indigenous name, #Denali, & restored its previous title, Mount McKinley.

Thank goodness for the “Window title is back” GNOME extension that that tells you which app/window you’re currently in.
What’s truly mind blowing is that you need an extension to provide what is arguably the most important landmark in design: the “where am I?” cue.

For anyone following this thread, if you use #GNOME and want the name of the app you’re currently in to be shown to you, you can use the Just Perfection GNOME extension (thank goodness for extensions) to do so.
It makes absolutely no sense to me that there is no way to look at your screen and know which app you’re in in GNOME. The ‘you are here’ landmark is so foundational that you’d fail Interaction Design 101 were you to forget it.

@tbernard @verdre@floss.social @fmuellner Hey Tobias, in that screenshot, what app are you in and how can you find out just by looking at the screen?
(I can’t help but think this is a huge step backwards in terms of usability. Multiple workspaces is a power feature. Knowing which app you’re in, especially when apps themselves don’t even tell you, is basic usability. I simply don’t understand the rationale behind this design choice.)

"Before the Dhoby Ghaut MRT Station came into existence in the area between Orchard and Penang Roads in 1987, this was the site of the Amber Mansions, one of the prominent landmarks of the Orchard vicinity."

This is the White Bear Tavern — the oldest building in #Belgrade, #Serbia. Of course, it's not working, but it was 400 years ago.
It doesn't look nice today, but nevertheless I feel adventures and fantasy quests are still waiting inside!

OK, similar question.
Can you tell me:
- Which app is currently active?
- What is its name?
- How you figured it out.
Quick test: can you tell me what the names of the three apps you see on my screen are and how you know what their names are. Also, can you tell me which app is currently active and how you know that.
