GNOME releases version 44

Specifically related to the comment by "Hacker news user dsego", that "I'm just too old to be excited by UI features that should've been here long ago". It's a shame that they feel impatience for features in volunteer-driven projects like GNOME.

Perhaps they'd be happier if given with some background on why the feature took a long time to implement. https://blog.gtk.org/2022/12/15/a-grid-for-the-file-chooser/ gives an insight - the new data model widgets in GTK4 allow implementing this with way less code than would have been needed with older versions of GTK. Something to be happy about in my opinion.
