This Week in Linux

Latest Episodes:

317: Steam Summer Sale, Fedora 32-Bit Controversy, Fairphone 6, KDE Korner, & more Linux news Jun 28, 2025

Show notes

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. 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. Now let's jump right into Your Source for Linux GNews.

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. 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.

Comment on the TWIL 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. With the walking through airports, a convention center, and the streets of Boston...my feet hurt but you want TWIL right so I'm powering through to bring you 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.

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.
