GNOME 带来了一个工具，可以让用户匿名提供他们的配置、扩展和 GNOME 调整设置等方面的意见。


这应该有助于 GNOME 了解更多的用户偏好，并做出更好的增强用户体验的决定。


有趣的是，是红帽公司的一名实习生（Vojtech Stanek）创造了这个工具。


### GNOME 信息收集：准备好安装了吗？


![gnome info collect terminal](/data/attachment/album/202208/27/162051vssef8fzk0g5vrns.png)


该工具（`gnome-info-collect`）是一个简单的终端程序，你需要下载、安装并运行它来与 GNOME 分享数据。


以下是该工具需要从你的 GNOME 系统中收集的内容：


* 硬件信息（包括制造商和型号）。
* 系统设置（包括工作区配置、共享功能、SSH 等）。
* 安装并启用的 GNOME shell 扩展。
* 应用程序信息（如已安装的应用程序和收藏的应用程序）。
* Linux 发行版和版本。
* Flatpak 和 Flathub 状态。
* 默认浏览器。
* 机器 ID + 用户名的 [加盐哈希](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_(cryptography))。


你可以在其 [GitLab 页面](https://gitlab.gnome.org/vstanek/gnome-info-collect/) 上找到适合你的发行版的软件包和收集数据的更多细节。


如果你有一个基于 Ubuntu 的发行版，你可以通过输入以下内容来安装它：



```
sudo snap install --classic gnome-info-collect

```

安装完毕后，在终端使用以下命令将其启动：



```
gnome-info-collect

```

接下来，它会显示它打算与 GNOME 共享的数据。所以，如果你觉得没问题，你可以选择将数据上传到 GNOME 的服务器上。

考虑到这些数据是匿名的，它应该可以帮助 GNOME 了解他们的用户喜欢什么，并随着时间的推移专注于这些改进。

GNOME has come up with a tool that lets users provide **anonymous insights** about their configurations, extensions, and GNOME-tuned settings.

This should help GNOME learn more about user preferences and make better decisions to enhance the user experience.

Interestingly, an intern at **Red Hat** (*Vojtech Stanek*) created this tool.

## ℹ️ GNOME Info Collect: Ready to Install?

![gnome info collect terminal](https://news.itsfoss.com/content/images/2022/08/gnome-info-collect-terminal.png)

The tool (gnome-info-collect) is a simple terminal program that you need to download, install, and run to share the data with GNOME.

Here's what the tool needs to collect from your GNOME system:

**Hardware information**(including manufacturer and model).**System settings**(including workspace configuration, sharing features, SSH etc.)**GNOME shell extensions**installed and enabled.**Application information**(like installed apps and favorites).**Linux distro**and version.**Flatpak and Flathub**status.**Default browser.**[Salted hash](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_(cryptography)?ref=news.itsfoss.com)of machine ID+username.

You can find the package suitable for your distribution and more details on the data collected available on its [GitLab page](https://gitlab.gnome.org/vstanek/gnome-info-collect/?ref=news.itsfoss.com).

For instance, if you have an **Ubuntu-based distribution**, you can install it by typing in:

`sudo snap install --classic gnome-info-connect`

Once installed, fire it up using the following command in the terminal:

`gnome-info-collect`

Next, it displays the data that it intends to share with GNOME. So, if it looks good to you, you can choose to upload the data to GNOME's servers.

Considering the data remains anonymous, it should help GNOME understand what their users like, and focus on those improvements over time.
