Zorin OS 16.3 is our first version that comes pre-installed with the new Zorin OS Upgrader. This is the feature our community has requested most throughout the years.

Zorin OS 16.3 is powered by the same version of the Linux kernel as in Ubuntu 22.04 LTS (GA). It comes with updated drivers, bringing even better compatibility with more hardware. That includes support for newer components like NVIDIA’s GeForce RTX 4070, 4060 Ti, and 4060 graphics cards out of the box.

Depthboot is a builder script that creates a bootable USB drive/SD-card that can be booted on any x86_64 Chromebook. It supports common Linux distributions(Pop!_OS, Ubuntu, Arch and Fedora) and a variety of the most popular desktop environments. Due to licensing restraints, Depthboot cannot be distributed as an iso. Instead, it has to be build locally.

Anyone have experiences with this?

My friend has deployed Phorge for himself and appears to be happy with it.

Not sure about studio quality, but for video conferencing and doing some Twitch streams, I've being using a Blue Yeti Nano USB microphone for a few years (since COVID) with no issues on Linux.

With all the recent fixes and features, Photon is now my default lemmy client :]

Thanks to @Xylight for starting this project and being so responsive on GitHub (I'm @pbui).

It's unfortunate, but the reality is that many of the proprietary services are... free, convenient, and where the people are.

Most projects do not have a lot of funding, so it makes sense to use low cost platforms with the least amount of friction. I think most developers are aware of the risks and trade-offs, but make a pragmatic decision to use these proprietary services b/c the benefits for them outweigh the costs.

In reaction to the recent announcements by RedHat, AlmaLinux is shifting focuses slightly:

We will continue to aim to produce an enterprise-grade, long-term distribution of Linux that is aligned and ABI compatible with RHEL in response to our community’s needs, to the extent it is possible to do, and such that software that runs on RHEL will run the same on AlmaLinux.

That is, instead of "1:1" bug compatibility, they will aim to be ABI compatible.

The Budgie project plans on soft forking mutter in the short term to implement Wayland support in Budgie 10, but will look into developing their own wlroots based compositor called Magpie as a long term solution.
