    Apr 29 2024
    This week's episode is so jam packed that it is kind of ridiculous. Let's rapid fire this intro and you'll see what I mean. Fedora Linux 40 is out, Ubuntu 24.04 LTS is out, Nextcloud has a new release of Nextcloud Hub and the release notes feel like they never end, the Flathub has released a new design refresh making it even better to use Flatpaks, and we recently had an awesome interview on the Destination Linux podcast that I gotta tell you about and all of this in one episode. I mean there's so much just in the Ubuntu topic that I didn't have time to cover the flavours, I'll tell you about those next week. Yea, this is going to be one of those episodes. Welcome to This Week in Linux, Your Source for Linux GNews!
