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/F_imR-7E9ps Comment on the TWIL Forum (https://thisweekinlinux.com/forum) This week in Linux, was just crazy... I just got back from the Red Hat Summit last night, now I'm making a jam packed episode of TWIL with stuff from the Red Hat Summit like them announcing RHEL 10. While I was out of time, we entered into the Twilight Zone because Microsoft apparently open sourced WSL, kind of. Mozilla announced they are shutting down some services. And the giant guitar company Fender, announced a new music creation tool that, yep, it supports Linux.

video: https://youtu.be/PtP_jOlAIHE Comment on the TWIL Forum (https://thisweekinlinux.com/forum) This week in Linux, we have a lot of cool stuff to talk about. First, we're going to talk about the future of KDE Plasma. Then we're going to go into the future of OpenSUSE because Leap 16 beta has been released and the final version will be coming out this year. Then we'll also have a new version of Mozilla Firefox. And also we have some interesting news from the Oregon State University because there's some potential risk of closure of their Open Source Lab, which would be a shame. And then we're also going to talk about Redis because they're back in the news this week because they want to redo with Open Source. 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://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iF-Zux_pQ-Y How valuable is open-source software, really? A new Harvard study puts a staggering number on its economic impact—but there's a catch. We break down what this means for the future of open source and why companies might not be pulling their weight. Plus, NVIDIA just made a major announcement in robotics that could change everything. Their latest tech is open-source, but is that enough to shape the future of humanoid robots? Join us for a deep dive into the power of open source and the future of AI-driven robotics!

video: https://youtu.be/gOsPlRv2i1o Mozilla just can't seem to stay out of controversy! The latest Firefox Terms of Use update sparked major backlash, with users fearing data harvesting, forcing Mozilla to backtrack—again. Meanwhile, Firefox 136 brings great updates for Linux users, but that's overshadowed by the mess they are making. And on the Google side, the DOJ is pushing for Chrome to be sold to break Google's search monopoly. Could this actually happen? What would it mean for the future of web browsing? Let's break it all down!

video: https://youtu.be/YP0wfUNC7D4 Comment on the TWIL Forum (https://thisweekinlinux.com/forum) This week in Linux, we have so much to talk about. First of all, KDE developers have launched their own company called TechPaladin Software. Also, the CodeWeavers team has released the latest version of their crossover software with Crossover 25. The Garuda Linux team have the latest release of their distribution called Broadwing. And also the EFF, the Electronic Frontier Foundation, has released a new open source tool for detecting Cell Site Simulators called RayHunter. And we'll talk about what all that meant later in the show. 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/EkFtY_K3sxA Comment on the TWIL Forum (https://thisweekinlinux.com/forum) This week in Linux, we have a ton of stuff to talk about. There's so much I couldn't fit at all on the show. And even one of the things I wanted to fit in the show, it's by itself too big to be in the show. So I'm going to split that off into a separate video. And there's also a new release of KDE Plasma 6.3. There's a new website for the GNOME project. GIMP 3.0 has another release candidate with RC3. And so much more, including some drama news, OBS studio stuff with Fedora. So let's jump into it because we got all of this and so much 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/v7ZLEAxoW14 Comment on the TWIL Forum (https://thisweekinlinux.com/forum) This week in Linux, we have a lot to talk about with the Linux kernel getting, or maybe not getting, Rusty. There's a little bit of drama there. Also, the Void Linux project has a new release of their distribution. EA has provided an update regarding Apex Legends and Linux. It's not great news, but we're gonna talk about it. There's also a tiny Linux kernel tweak that could save 30% on power use for data centers. And all of this and so much 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/LQTqcC0TI-o Comment on the TWIL Forum (https://thisweekinlinux.com/forum) This week in Linux was kind of insane . . . in a good way because the Wine Project hit the big 1-0 with Wine 10. AMD announced something called the AMDGPU Composition Stack and it has a ton of potential for positively impacting the Linux desktop. Intel announced a modular PC idea they are trying to push that could positively impact everyone even including the environment. Then we got the latest release of SDL which will positively impact gamers and so many more.

video: https://youtu.be/qAHxogc8QTc Comment on the TWIL Forum (https://thisweekinlinux.com/forum) This week in Linux, we have a brand new version of the Linux kernel to talk about. Well, maybe. Technically, the 6.13 release is not until this Sunday, and I'm recording this before Sunday, so we're just going to roll the dice, and hopefully it doesn't get delayed. Also, we have some distro news this week to talk about with a new release from Linux Mint, MX Linux, and OpenSUSE. We also have some security news related to the rsync project, as well as a big flaw that was found in the Linux kernel. We're gonna talk about all of this and so much more on This Week in Linux, your weekly news show that keeps you up to date with what's going on in the Linux and Open Source world.
