Desktop apps nowadays have modern system requirements and require an evolution of the roles and responsibilities of upstream developers and the desktop distro. I am going to discuss my perspective as an app developer dealing with the Linux Fragmentation Problem and the solutions being built to address it. My perspective developing GNOME Boxes, participating in the GNOME and Flatpak communities, while being a Fedora and RHEL contributor in my day job at Red Hat.
Felipe is a GNOME developer for over a decade, contributing in software development and community governance. He maintains GNOME Boxes and GNOME Settings, and contributes in various fronts to attract new contributors to the GNOME and Flatpak communities.
