This week in Linux, we have a brand new release of the Linux kernel itself. We have some new distro releases from AlmaLinux, NixOS, and more. Plus there’s some interesting news from Ubuntu that has people asking whether or not Ubuntu is switching to a rolling release model. We’ll answer that question here on this episode of TWIL and we’ll also check out some awesome news about how SteamOS absolutely crushes Windows on the Legion Go S. 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!
