Linux App Release Roundup: May 2025

May saw another sizeable set of Linux app updates, including a big update to system monitor tool Mission Centre and long-awaited version bump to system cleaner BleachBit. We also got new versions of web browsers Mozilla Firefox and Vivaldi; the NordVPN Linux app gained a GUI; and more — but they weren’t the only releases of note. That’s why I do these Linux app release roundups: I like to highlight app updates that didn’t warrant a headline of their own, but are still worth knowing about. As always, if you hear about a notable app update I haven’t covered, tips :sys_more_orange:

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 :sys_more_orange:

Loved the segment by @UnarmedOracle in this week’s CheckPoint about Microsoft WHAMM! and their Quake 2 simulacrum.

Especially loved the finishing remarks:
“I love being in a coalition! It’s good to see a vigorous defense of those things. It’s miserable to need one.”

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). For those of us on fixed-release Linux distributions like Ubuntu, even small app updates can :sys_more_orange:

Linux App Release Roundup (Feb 2025)

February was a bumper month for Linux app updates, bringing new releases of Mozilla Firefox, LibreOffice, ONLYOFFICE and more — as well as a slew of smaller app updates that didn’t get a full-length article on this blog. Rather than skip over them entirely I thought I’d resurrect my Linux Release Roundup thread1 to provide a monthly (perhaps twice-monthly, if there’s a lot) run-through of some of them. After all, for those of us on fixed-release Linux distribution like Ubuntu may find one of these smaller updates fixes a flaw or fleshes out a feature to make it worth upgrading :sys_more_orange:

Can't believe it's been 10 years since I was on Fan Dump... youtu.be/lxApKNcWrNI #lrr

Fan Dump Episode 5: I hate Ill...

@sick1y is the funniest member of #LRR and I'm tired of being quiet about it.

I've been talking with some folks about the wonderful Paranoia #TTRPG and I remembered one of my all time favorite playthroughs:

I'm surprised I haven't found a reason to recommend it before now. All of #LRR 's Dice Friends series are awesome. I started making a list to recommend and realized it would be basically all of them.

As you can see these are very reasonable rates so please consider it, also please spread the word if you can #lrr #artists

So I’m posting this on here as well due to a large part of us being LRR fans. Alex is an extremely talented artist for both SFW and NSFW commissions as well as the creator for the comics Purifier and Spaceshipping which you can find out there. In instances like this if you don’t want a commission that’s ok, word of mouth is a powerful marketing tool that costs you nothing. #loadingreadyrun #lrr #artist

I’m currently at a company retreat and suddenly the discussion was about linux and I showed them this very old @LoadingReadyRun video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ajW2fDy41fY
And well @jabbi paused every 30 seconds to announce "Technically this is possible now…"

This #LRR #PPR for #MagicTheGathering Commander Masters has had so many :JudgeCall: calls. I love it. The wild variety of interactions is terrific fun to watch.

Getting up at 5am to watch the #LRR #PPR makes sense, right?
