Redox progressed another month, and that means a ton of improvements and new features to talk about. The biggest news this past month is that Xfce has been ported to Redox, which offers a better X11 experience than MATE currently does. There's still some bugs but apparently is works quite well. The porting process for the COSMIC desktop environment also progressed, with COSMIC's new Monit

@mastodonmigration @deFractal @Blender The name isn't as important as recruiting projects dedicated to human only contributions. There are plenty who have pledged to keep AI out, #RedoxOS for instance.

Never mind just Linux; this would seem to raise serious issues for any group producing their own kernel without an army of lawyers on staff e.g. *BSD, RedoxOS, Graphene, ReactOS, Haiku, illumos and perhaps even plan9 and operating system textbooks and learning frameworks like FluxOSKit. There is furthermore some significant scariness about packets crossing borders rendering ppl liable for violations of all this when passing through spaces wherein USA agents may apprehend them.
