- Our Hopes for Linux in 2020
- [Ryan]
- Better professional audio equipment support
- Tablet and mobile support
- A corporate or well financed entity focused on the desktop. Easy install, hardware partnerships, mobile integration, and up to date rolling.
- [Michael]
- reiterate Ryan's desktop focus point
- more companies using universal app formats regardless which one they pick
- WINE to get some more attention from some kind of backing
- [Zeb]
- Less regression, it always seems that in the process of fixing one thing another thing breaks somewhere else. Now the Devs cannot really do a lot about this without the communities help. So as Linux users we need to volunteer to do more testing.

https://destinationlinux.network/freegeek

When we launched the Destination Linux Network we also wanted to partner with our growing community to find ways we could give back. So we put up a post on our Discourse forum and asked the community to provide us feedback on the charities you would like for us to work with. Free Geek was highly recommended by many of you and we're so excited to partner with them and launch our first giving back campaign.

Free Geek's mission is to sustainably reuse technology and enable digital access and education to the community. The best part is they have many ways for everyone to get involved. In this episode we interview Hilary Shohoney of FreeGeek. Hilary is Free Geek's Manager of Development and manages the relationships between Free Geek and the local community working on issues like the digital divide.

Software Spotlight:
This software spotlight comes one of the hosts of the new podcast, DLNXtend:

Since I am a KDE Plasma user and I do a lot in the web when it comes to researching and I think you should give KDE Falkon a try. It is not feature rich and lacks the Plasma Integration and ability to access DRM encumbered sources but outside of that, it has much less memory usage than Chrome or Firefox. I have been using it for nearly everything as of late. It might be wroth a try.

Tips & Tricks:
Check diskspace with df command. The most popular and generically popular version is to add the -h switch to the end for human readable format. This will let you know the diskspace used and available across your system or servers. It's easy to remeber and faster than a GUI.
