Just finished a look into the brand new @elementary OS 8.1!
Is the move to Wayland by default (Secure Session) ready for prime time? Yes, yes it is. I walk through the installer, test out the new workspace switcher in the dock, and check out the new monitor and other apps.
If you are looking for a polished, Ubuntu 24.04 based experience, this release has a lot of polish to show off. Great for new users!

Can't, I need to propel this bricked mini-PC from Maine to LA in under 24 hours.
I wonder if we are focused on the right things.
It ran #Ubuntu, for a little while, at least.
As a holiday treat to myself, I got a server through Hetzner's server auction. Now I need to learn how to set up docker stuff on it via command line because I don't think there's a GUI interface I can use.
Anyone have any links that will help someone that hasn't touched a linux system since the days of OS/2 Warp? (Which I know is not linux, but it is going to give the olds an idea of how long it's been.)

Good news: Regarding the ongoing #AntiAntifa attacks by #debanking leftist solidarity projects in #Germany the Georg Elser Institute @gei emergency-published an #Ansible project that deploys a complete #Taler demo stack (exchange, merchant, WordPress shop) on #Ubuntu 24.04 (noble) to give *everybody* a jump start into the complexity of #GNUtaler.
We forked it for you on #Codeberg:

6️⃣ Ordi principal Linux
Depuis 3 ou 4 ans je travaille au quotidien avec un ordinateur #Asus #Zenbook, qui tournait au départ sur Windows 10 et qui fonctionne maintenant avec la distribution #Linux #Ubuntu
@libreoffice et @ONLYOFFICE font le taf pour la gestion des documents bureautiques.
Et pour le reste, je trouve l'ergonomie tellement plus efficace et simple au quotidien que l'écosystème Windows... mais c'est une question d'habitude et de formation.

ZFS encrypted root on Ubuntu 25.10, installed from a fresh USB key works fine following the instructions at
It's a shame they dropped native support from the installer. That was a lot of hoops to jump through.
One thing missing was needing to run
addgroup --system gnome-initial-setup
otherwise gdm3 wasn't coming up. I'm also not sure if swap is working properly, but that doesn't really matter for me.

I tried giving the Firefox snap version on #Ubuntu a fair shake, but it just seems constantly broken in new ways. Lately, it's been randomly going into "30 seconds per keypress" mode, apparently some incompatibility with GNOME input methods.
Switching to the Mozilla .deb now to see if this improves things.
