I’m back from the Red Hat Summit, and there is a lot to talk about this week. We have a new kernel release with Linux 6.9, which sees a lot of performance perks. There’s also some new cool AI stuff from Red Hat that was announced. We’re going to unpack some messy drama related to Telegram and Signal. And we have many distro releases to talk about like EndlessOS, Manjaro, and more. So let’s dive right into the episode with This Week in Linux, Your Source for Linux GNews.
