Description

Any gpg key in /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/ directory is implicitly trusted by apt for all packages. The recommended way is to explicitly specify gpg for each repo, ensuring this gpg key will only be used for packages from this repo.

This PR updates readme to reflect recommended GPG key usage. Please read this askubuntu answer to learn more about gpg key usage in apt: https://askubuntu.com/a/1307181/225795

This PR also adds another line of instruction to get GPG key from packagecloud.

Note

While I thoroughly checked it in ubuntu, and can confirm that it now follows recommendation, the instructions for rpms are problematic.

Updated the "About GitHub Desktop" model to remove the button to check for updates (since it didn't do anything on Linux) and replace with a link to the linux releases page
* Theme Scrollbars

Updated scrollbars to match windows webkit styling for both light and dark mode

* Update _scroll.scss

Separating linux from win32 reference, in case we want to adjust for the future and not impact the other

* Updated Scroll Color and Docs

Adding color change to dark theme scroll bars merged upstream, and updating documentation related to editor and shell updates
Reduce errors produced in terminal from debian package installations by testing for existence of symlink prior to executing unlink
There already exists a function that will convert a tilde path to an absolute path. It was originally used for this purpose, but the functionality was removed during a commit that changed which function was used to validate git repositories.

This reinstates that functionality and allows us to type a ~/ tilde path to get our home directories when typing in a path.

* Update README.md to add mirror

I added `mirror.mwt.me` as a possible repo option. I tried to keep this stylistically consistent with the rest of the document.

I also offloaded the GPG key download to keys.openpgp.org. This allows this step to work even if PackageCloud is out of bandwidth. It also has the advantage of putting the key id in the README and does not require users to trust me.

* undo use of openpgp.org

* Mention AppImage and Flatpak
* add support for gnome console

* Delete configurationCache.log

* Update linux.ts

* fix cap of gnome

* support new GNOME Text Editor

* support GNOME builder
