Sounds like a mostly minor bugfix release, albeit the following sounds serious:

Fix issue where web interface cannot run gravity by @PromoFaux in #6345

Though its clearly not universal.

This is not an internet issue, this is a socio-political issue.

We have yet to figure out new modes of governance, economic relations and political systems that take in account the reality of a society with universal, high quality ICT access.

The fact that it is far easier to spread misinformation is a social issue, not a technological issue. It's driven by the fact that US technology oligarch only care about engagement and they hold no responsibility for their actions (and cannot be prosecuted due to broad support for corruption and criminality in American society).

Haven't used Kubuntu so can't help you with that.

Regarding installing application from 3rd parties, there is no guaranteed way to know that what you're installing is clean.

That being said, I would argue basic evaluations (how long has the project been around, does it get mentioned a lot in articles and forums, are there a lot of star and activity on the guthub page?) should be good enough for regular operational security.

One other general tip, try using Gemini (the LLM by Google) for real-time support and explanations around Kubuntu. I find it helpful for guidance on complex applications (ones that are far more niche than Kubuntu).

An excellent return on the $99 spent. :)

Funny to see a YT-style video from 1995.

I was curious about Yggdrasil and I found this little piece of history on Wikipedia:

A beta release was made on 18 February 1993.[4][7] The beta's cost was US$60. LGX's beta release in 1993 contained the 0.99.5 version of the Linux kernel, along with other software from GNU and X.[7] By 22 August 1993, the Yggdrasil company had sold over 3100 copies of the LGX beta distribution.[8]

Yggdrasil made $186,000 selling CDs with a beta version. Making CDs was probably much more expensive back then, but I am sure they got a volume discount for a run of ~3,000 units.

The release version was $99!

I tried OrganicMaps, but it was noticeably less usable than Google Maps.

When you actually need maps on mobile, UX issues and jank becomes extremely annoying.

Congrats!

BcacheFS seems to have been released around ~2019 and it's still alpha?

One thing you don't want to fuck around with is your file system. It's one area of computing where conservatism is paramount.

While that's true, I think it's best to keep everything as simple as possible for new users.

You joined Lemmy, you have a newtolemmy community where (hopefully) all your questions are answered. Same with Piefed.

IMO !newtolemmy@lemmy.ca and !newtopiefed@piefed.ca are more helpful than a generic fediverse focused community. By the time you know what the fediverse is (I used Mastodon before joining Lemmy and now Piefed), you don't need to deal with the noob questions.
