video: https://youtu.be/MQuXK2JavzY This week in Linux, Motorola announced something really cool, they are partnering with the Android fork GrapheneOS. Bazzite is in the news this week with an update. We also saw new releases from Linux From Scratch, Bunsenlabs and more. Then we are going to cover a topic that is on the minds of practically everyone right now ... those annoying age verifications laws popping up all of the sudden.

video: https://youtu.be/9P4ki0yBVb0 This week in Linux, we've got a solid mix of kernel news, desktop progress, application releases, and even a little bit drama thrown in for good measure. Several Linux LTS kernels are getting extended support, COSMIC Desktop 1.0.8 has landed with more polish, Firefox 148 is out with some notable changes, and the Ladybird browser project is making a big move by adding Rust to its development strategy. On top of that, Discord has officially delayed its global age verification rollout after significant backlash, so we'll break down what happened there and what it means going forward. All of this and more on This Week in Linux, the weekly news show that keeps you up to date with what's going on in the Linux and Open Source world.

video: https://youtu.be/2188McQBnHg This week in Linux, was a HUGE week for Linux news and it was also a HUGE week for me because today marks the 10th anniversary of TuxDigital. That's right I started TuxDigital back in 2016 so it's just crazy to think I've been making content for 10 years. Also KDE has a brand new version of their desktop with Plasma 6.6. We've also got a new version of Linux game manager, Lutris. Then we've got an update from the Asahi Linux project for their work on getting Linux on Apple hardware. Later in the show, we've got everyone's favorite with Legal News, although seriously this is good news about Valve winning a lawsuit against a Patent Troll.

video: https://youtu.be/qMIdMJnqNkE This week in Linux, we have a brand new version of the Linux kernel with Linux 6.19. Discord is in the news this week because they decided to roll out age verification to the entire world and received a lot of backlash for it... which is very much deserved. Linux Mint is talking about changing how they do releases of their distros and how they might do fewer of them. Then we'll take a look at the upcoming KDE Linux distro and what they've got cooking in their immutable oven.

video: https://youtu.be/5T1Frk70LTQ Comment on the TWIL Forum (https://thisweekinlinux.com/forum) This week in Linux, we have a lot of news to cover. We have some good news and some bad news. Well, people like to start with bad news first, I guess. So there is a fiasco happening with Secure Boot and how it may be affecting Linux users. Also, the EU is proposing a law that is pretty close to being passed that is very scary and a step towards mass surveillance. We'll talk about that. Then also we have some good news and that the Pebble watches are back and we have some beta releases from Linux Mint and Ubuntu Touch as well as SyncThing is back, which is a really cool tool to sync your files across multiple devices. All of this and more on This Week in Linux, the weekly news show that keeps you up to date with what's going on in the Linux and open source world.

video: https://youtu.be/abgTchtrH0k On this episode of Destination Linux, we are joined by security expert Craig Rowland returns for the “Sandfly Security Scoop,” explaining how the stealthy BPFdoor back‑door evades firewalls and sharing tips for DEF CON and Black Hat attendees. We also unpack listener feedback about phone‑addiction myths and mindful smartphone use. Then we discuss Moonshot's open‑source Kimi AI model that tackles two‑million‑character prompts and beats proprietary LLM benchmarks, sparking a wider chat about open AI guardrails and Linux's role under the hood. Later, there's some bittersweet news that Intel is discontinuing its performance‑tuned Clear Linux distro, prompting nostalgia and debate over rolling vs. hybrid releases. Our tip of the week highlights a crowd‑sourced Linux guide that demystifies getting started with Ubuntu especially for network engineers.

video: https://youtu.be/ucGrNLdsql0 Comment on the TWIL Forum (https://thisweekinlinux.com/forum) This week in Linux, we've got a bit of bad news from Intel as they abruptly ended Clear Linux out of no where and Arch Linux warned users that malware was found in the AUR. It's not all bad this week though because Wayback is back on the show with the first preview release for keeping X11 desktops alive in our future Wayland powered world. Plus according to one source, Linux usage is even higher than we already thought it was. A couple of episodes ago I reported that we broke the 5% threshold on the US desktop market based on StatCounter data but according to one source it's already climbed passed 6%. What source you ask? The analytics of U.S. federal government websites. Speaking of governments, GitHub is trying to get EU lawmakers to scale Germany's Sovereign Tech Fund into a EU wide program to fund critical open‑source projects. Also for some more good news, we're so close to hitting 100,000 subscribers on the channel, if you want to help please consider subscribing.

video: https://youtu.be/GH18mp-2d90 Comment on the TWIL Forum (https://thisweekinlinux.com/forum) This week in Linux is packed! It's an extra long episode. So if you were wanting more and more TWIL, then you're going to get it this week because Steam Summer Sale is here and it is torching bank accounts. Fedora developers are talking about getting rid of 32-bit support and there's a little bit of controversy around that. We're going to break all of that down. Also, Fairphone 6 has been announced and it comes with kernel patches, an upstream Linux kernel on day one. Firefox 140 has arrived as the new ESR, and there's also some exciting news coming in the next release of Firefox as well. And later in the show, KDE's Wayland wave is continuing to grow to about 70% of users these days. Kubuntu drops X11 by default, and KDE is working on a slick first run wizard.

video: https://youtu.be/72OZsGwPee0 In this episode of Destination Linux, Ryan, Michael, and Jill suit up as open-source superheroes to tackle the week's biggest stories: Ubuntu 25.10's bold move to drop GNOME on X11 for Wayland, Apple's new containerization feature that sneaks Linux into macOS, and Murena's privacy-focused /e/ OS 3.0 update. They spar over kernel-level anti-cheat rootkits, debate Wayland's readiness for prime time (NVIDIA woes and all), we respond to Community Feedback — including pizza bribes and snack shenanigans—and spotlight Bouncer, a nifty firewall-zone helper. Strap in, sync your repos, and join the DL crew as they champion truth, justice, and software freedom — all in under an hour of geeky goodness.

video: https://youtu.be/c-PWqlJCB9M This week in Linux, there's a lot of news to talk about from new desktop updates to new apps and even a bit of drama. We'll start things off this week with the news that Ubuntu 25.10 is dropping X11 on GNOME sessions. There's a lot of chatter around this one and even some yelling about it... we're going to go over what's really happening, why it matters, who's really behind it, touch on a new fork of X11 and more. That's just the first topic... we also got some crazy news from Apple about running Linux Containers on Macs. Then we'll take a look at a new release of the Sway tiling window manager and then we have news from Linux Mint about their next release and some infrastructure changes happening at GNOME.

video: https://youtu.be/tSc1HwpPRek In this episode of Destination Linux, we discuss the surge of interest in Linux due to PewDiePie's switch to Linux video. Recommendations for beginner-friendly distributions, along with practical tips on terminal commands and backup strategies as well as pitfalls to avoid. Then later we address the funding crisis facing the Open Source Lab at Oregon State University and urge listener support.
