Linux Release Roundup (February 2026)
▻https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2026/03/linux-release-roundup-february-2026

February 2026 delivered a fresh batch of Linux app releases, with updates to VLC, GIMP, Vivaldi, and VirtualBox among the many that filtered out. I covered some of the month’s biggest releases with fully-featured articles, like Firefox 148 with AI ‘kill switch’, a more capable ONLYOFFICE 9.3 productivity suite and Typhoon’s Qt 6 port. They weren’t the only ones of note. Below, I roundup a fleet of February’s other software releases. Some updates were more of the modest maintenance variety, while others were more substantial new features. #ardour 9.2 finally arrived Ardour, the open-source digital audio workstation (DAW), saw its […] You’re reading Linux Release Roundup (February 2026), a blog post from OMG!

Linux Release Roundup (January 2026)
▻https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2026/02/linux-release-roundup-january-2026

January 2026 was a productive month for Linux app releases, with updates to #VLC, GIMP, Vivaldi, and #VirtualBox among those pushed out. I covered many of the month’s biggest releases, like Firefox 147, Wine 11.0 and Transmission 4.1 already. Below I roundup a selection of January’s other releases. While many updates were maintenance bumps, others added long-awaited features. VLC 3.0.23 After a bit of “is it actually out” limbo, VLC 3.0.23 rolled out across all supported OSes in mid-January. Key highlight is dark mode support on Linux and Windows, with the UI adopting light or dark theme automatically when system […] You’re reading Linux Release Roundup (January 2026), a blog post from OMG!

Linux App Release Roundup (August 2025)

August flew by, but not before dropping off a fresh batch of Linux #App_Updates. In this post, I round up some of the smaller app releases that hit my radar, but didn’t blip strongly enough to warrant a full article. Of course, plenty of app updates did: Kdenlive 25.08 delivered 10-bit H.265 support; we saw VirtualBox 7.2 update its UI; HandBrake 1.10 provide new Discord-friendly presets; Flameshot returned; while Mastodon client Tuba 0.10 added seemingly everything. On the ol’ AI front, IntelliJ IDEA 2025.2 brought support for offline AI code completion, while productivity suite with contentious origins ONLYOFFICE 9.0.4 […] You’re reading Linux App Release Roundup (August 2025), a blog post from OMG!

How the Jeff is it July, already?! Blink-and-you-miss-it June flew by but it did deliver a number notable Linux app releases to act as blurred mile markers as we hurtle into another month. The redesigned ONLYOFFICE 9.0 generated a lot of opinion; the Flathub debut for Linux TIDAL client High Tide made waves with music lovers; and a slice of system-preserving options were added to the Raspberry Pi Imager tool, which was great. We also got (as we always do) a new version of Mozilla Firefox in Firefox 140, adding manual memory unloading for tabs, easier adding of custom search engines, […] You’re reading Linux App Release Roundup (June 2025), a blog post from OMG!

Linux App Release Roundup (April 2025)

April brought a solid set of software updates to an assortment of different apps. In this post, I run through recent releases that didn’t get the “whole article” treatment on this blog. Sometimes, it’s a challenge to cover everything I want to (especially in an Ubuntu release month, as April was). It also relies on me knowing a new release is out, and in a timely fashion. I track as much as I can, as best as I can. But it’s easy for things to pass under my radar (which is why the new tips you send me through the […] You’re reading Linux App Release Roundup (April 2025), a blog post from OMG! Ubuntu.

Linux App Release Roundup (March 2025)
▻https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2025/03/linux-app-release-roundup-march-2025

March was another stellar month for Linux software updates, with big improvements to essential privacy tools like KeePassXC, creative apps such as #shotcut and DigiKam, and many more — updates that didn’t warrant dedicated articles on this blog. Why? ..Well, sometimes it’s an update making small changes hat it’s hard to say much1 about. Other times I’m just deathly late to hearing about it (which is why new tips via the contact form are super appreciated – you help me catch the things I miss).

February proved a bumper month for Linux software updates, seeing big release of productivity suites LibreOffice and ONLYOFFICE and, plus a crop of smaller #App_Updates which didn’t merit a full-length article on this blog. Rather than skip over those updates entirely, I thought I’d resurrect my Linux Release Roundup thread1 to curate a monthly (perhaps twice-monthly, if there’s a lot) run-through of smaller software updates I think would still be of most interest to regular readers. For those of us on fixed-release Linux distribution like Ubuntu, such updates may fix a finicky flaw, improve integration, or add a niche […] You’re reading Linux App Release Roundup (Feb 2025), a blog post from OMG!
