Gajim 2.0.0 has been released 🎉
Gajim migrated its user interface toolkit to GTK 4, which brings performance improvements and sets the ground for great features to follow. ⏩
Additionally, this release brings improved image previews, better tools for fighting spam, and much more.
All of these changes were only possible by touching a lot of Gajim’s code base, and we appreciate all the feedback we got from you. ❤️

Can anybody who has used both PostmarketOS and PureOS on their Librem 5 state what, if any, advantages I would see moving from PureOS to PMOS ? I am familiar with both and have no serious dislikes of either. Just not sure it will be worth my weekend to do it.
Deadline extended! Show us your art. Three days left to submit for inclusion in Rocky Linux 10 for all the glory!
Wallpaper contest goes through March 3. Submission guidelines in the Rocky Forums, here: https://buff.ly/3XocnJH
Bryan Lunduke had a great video about Devuan.

Devuan is great for freedom of choice. During install gives the user a choice between SysVinit, Runnit, and OpenRC. If you use the netinstaller option you also get a choice of desktop environments during install including XFCE, Cinnamon, Gnome, KDE, LXDE, LXQT and Mate. It can also easily be used with the libre kernel if one wanted to if you follow the instructions at FSFLA.
The project's main website is here:
The project has a forum and a presence on the fediverse:

The project accepts donations through Paypal, crypto and bank transfer if you wish to help financially:
You know our community help site, Ask LibreOffice? https://ask.libreoffice.org – Well, it's now on Mastodon too, thanks to the good people at Fosstodon 😊 The @AskLibreOffice account will highlight particularly useful answers, but please still ask your questions on the website, rather than asking the account directly 😉
You asked, we built it! See what Nextcloud Hub 10 is about! ✨
Not only we challenged the #BigTech once again, but delivered countless performance improvements you asked for!

I have been gaming since 1992 and building PCs since 2003. I enjoy Linux, supporting FOSS projects and am a tinfoil hat connoisseur.
Many FOSS projects rely on donations. If you have money to spare but don't know which to donate to take a look at the above links on Ko-fi, Github, and Open Collective. Anything on there that I have sponsered or contributed to is something I have found to be worthy.
