The GNOME Project is proud to announce the release of GNOME 3.38, Orbis.

This release brings a new Welcome tour, improved grouping and reordering

of applications in the overview, better fingerprint enrollment, deeper

systemd integration, and more.

Improvements to core GNOME applications include intelligent tracking

prevention in Web, night mode and adaptive UI in Maps, redesigned

Clocks and Sound Recorder, and more.

GNOME 3.38 will be available shortly in many distributions. If you want

to try it today, you can use the Fedora 33 beta that will be available

soon or the openSUSE nightly live images which include GNOME 3.38.

This is the first release for which we can provide our own installer

images for debugging and testing features. These images are meant for

installation in a vm and require GNOME Boxes 3.38 (with UEFI support)

to boot:

If you are interested in building applications for GNOME 3.38, look for

the GNOME 3.38 Flatpak SDK, which is available in the www.flathub.org

repository.

This six-month effort wouldn't have been possible without the whole

GNOME community, made of contributors and friends from all around the

world: developers, designers, documentation writers, usability and

accessibility specialists, translators, maintainers, students, system

administrators, companies, artists, testers and last, but not least,

our users.

GNOME would not exist without all of you. Thank you to everyone!

Our next release is planned for March 2021. Until then, enjoy GNOME 3.38!
