Progress Chef is a configuration management tool written in Ruby and Erlang. It uses a pure-Ruby, domain-specific language (DSL) for writing system configuration “recipes”. It’s open source software published under the Apache License 2.0. However, their other products are published under a proprietary license. What if you are looking to move away from proprietary software. In this series we showcase open source alternatives to products from Progress. This is a new series. Bear with us as we compile additional roundups. * ⚓ Best_Free_and_Open_Source_Alternatives_to_Citrix_XenServer_- LinuxLinks⠀⇛ XenServer (previously Citrix Hypervisor) is a hypervisor optimized for the Citrix platform. XenServer is proprietary software. We recommend the best free and open source alternatives for Linux. * ⚓ Rakarrack_plus_-_rewrite_of_Rakarrack_-_LinuxLinks⠀⇛ Rakarrack is a JACK app. Presets and user interface are optimized for guitar, but Rakarrack processes signals in stereo while it does not apply internal band-limiting filtering, and thus is well suited to all musical instruments and vocals. This is free and open source software. * ⚓ Hickory_-_Rust-based_DNS_client,_server_and_resolver_-_LinuxLinks⠀⇛ Hickory is a Rust based DNS client, server, and resolver, built to be safe and secure from the ground up. This is free and open source software. * ⚓ Clipboard_Sync_-_synchronization_tool_for_X11_and_Wayland_instances_- LinuxLinks⠀⇛ To use clipboard sync, you only need to install it and start the service. It identifies and synchronizes your clipboards automatically. This is free and open source software. * ⚓ Dodo_-_graphical_email_client_-_LinuxLinks⠀⇛ Dodo is a graphical email client, based on the command line email swiss-army-knife notmuch. This is free and open source software. * ⚓ SuperSlicer_-_G-code_generator_for_3D_printers_-_LinuxLinks⠀⇛ SuperSlicer takes 3D models (STL, OBJ, AMF) and converts them into G-code instructions for FFF printers or PNG layers for mSLA 3D printers. It’s compatible with any modern printer based on the RepRap toolchain which is running a firmware based on Marlin, Prusa, Klipper, etc. SuperSlicer is based on PrusaSlicer which in turn is based on Slic3r. This is free and open source software. ⣗⣢⠄⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠈⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⣌⣹⣿⡀⠀⢸⣿⠀⠈⣿⡇⠀⢸⣿⠩⠉⣿⡟⠻⢿⣿⢿⣶⣿⣷⣦⣾⣧⣀⣸⣿⣿⠉⣀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣦⡀⣇⡤⢞⣫⣿⡏⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣶⣿⣿⡧⢀⠀⣿⣿⡄⠈⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣶⣿⣧⣤⣸⣿⣐⠀⣿⡇⠀⢸⣿⠀⠀⣿⡏⠩⢽⡟⠛⢻⣿⣿⠀⠛⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣸⣿⡿⢟⡭⢚⠙⡿⢿⡇⠀⣀ ⣾⣽⣛⡿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⢐⡶⣿⣿⡉⠛⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣾⣿⠭⢙⣿⣟⡛⢿⣿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣾⣿⣤⣤⣿⣇⣠⣾⡇⠀⢸⣿⣿⠟⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣽⢟⣿⣚⠁⣿⡿⠀⠃⣸⣵⡾⢻ ⠛⠻⠿⣿⣇⢺⣭⣟⡿⣿⣿⣷⣮⣽⣿⡉⠀⣿⣏⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣶⣿⣧⣤⣼⣿⣈⣀⣿⡇⠉⢹⣿⠛⠛⣿⡿⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠘⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠁⢹⣿⠁⢏⣡⣶⠿⢿⣷⠛⠈ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⡟⠻⠿⣿⡗⢺⣟⡿⣿⣿⣷⣖⣿⣿⢷⡿⢿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⣀⣸⣿⠀⠈⣿⡇⠀⢺⣿⠂⢸⣿⣿⠶⠀⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣾⣿⡀⣸⣭⡾⢟⠉⠀⠀⠸⣿⠷⣀ ⠐⠂⠤⢐⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⣹⡞⠿⣿⣷⠯⣻⢿⣿⣯⣸⡇⢠⣿⣿⣿⠀⢠⣿⡇⠀⢸⣿⠉⠉⣿⣟⡿⠻⣿⠿⢿⣿⣷⣶⣾⣿⣼⣿⣿⣿⠉⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡾⢿⣯⡆⢸⣿⡀⢀⣠⣷⣿⣏ ⠄⣀⠀⠀⣿⡇⠀⠠⢀⣿⡇⠀⠘⣹⣾⢿⣷⡭⡻⣿⣷⡨⡟⣿⣿⣶⣴⣿⣧⣀⣸⣿⠀⣀⣿⡇⠀⢸⣿⠀⠀⣿⡇⠀⢸⡟⠉⠙⣿⣿⣀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣯⡇⣸⣿⠄⣘⣅⡶⠟⡏⣿⡟⡟ ⠉⠀⠉⠁⣿⣷⢀⠀⠀⣼⡇⠢⢤⣿⣿⠀⠈⣣⢿⣮⠻⣿⣟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠛⣻⣿⣿⠿⢿⣷⣶⣾⣿⣤⣤⣼⣇⣀⣸⣇⠀⠀⢺⢻⠈⢸⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣽⣿⣿⡟⣇⣨⣷⢾⠋⠁⠀⣿⣧⣿⣧⡷ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⡇⣿⠀⠀⠀⢿⣷⠀⠀⢸⡟⠲⠒⣿⡿⠙⢸⣮⢿⣿⣿⠀⢀⣿⡇⠈⢹⣿⠉⠉⢽⣿⣷⣶⣿⠉⠩⢽⡟⠛⠻⡿⠓⠲⢿⢼⠀⠈⠹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣟⣽⣶⣿⡟⠋⣿⡄⠀⠀⣀⡯⢞⣿⠕⡞ ⠀⠀⠀⢠⡇⣿⠀⠀⠀⣼⣿⠀⠈⠸⣷⡀⠀⣿⡣⡦⡇⠙⣾⣿⣿⣿⠿⣿⣷⣶⣿⣿⣤⣤⣼⣇⣈⣀⣿⠀⠀⢸⡇⠀⠀⡇⠉⠀⢸⢸⠀⠀⠀⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⡇⠠⣿⣿⠶⣛⡥⣘⣭⣾⣷⡇ ⠀⠀⠀⣸⡇⣿⠀⠀⠀⡏⣿⠀⢀⢰⣿⠀⠀⢻⡄⠀⡇⠀⣮⣾⣯⠉⠉⣿⡇⠐⠒⣿⠟⠉⢹⡟⠛⢛⣿⠟⠿⢿⡷⠤⢴⣷⠀⠀⢸⣸⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⢚⣯⠖⠋⣶⣿⣿⢿⢸⢟⣫ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 461 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/03/09/Debian_Linux_on_Android_and_Open_Hardware_Picks.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/03/09/Debian_Linux_on_Android_and_Open_Hardware_Picks.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Debian Linux on Android and Open Hardware Picks⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Mar 09, 2025 * ⚓ ZDNet ☛ Your_Android_phone_will_run_Debian_Linux_soon_(like_some_Pixels already_can)⠀⇛ Qualcomm claims that my Samsung Galaxy S25 Plus' Snapdragon 8 Elite CPU is faster than the Intel Core Ultra 288V chip. My smartphone also has 12GB of RAM and 512GB of solid-state storage. In short, it's more powerful than most of my laptops. So why not use it as a laptop? Why not, indeed, says Google, which has introduced -- at long last -- a native Linux Terminal application in its March 2025 Pixel Feature Drop. Of course, Android is Linux. However, it's a mobile-first Linux distribution with a smartphone-friendly interface that bears little resemblance to the traditional Linux shell interface, never mind the Linux graphical user interfaces and their programs. That's changed now. * § Open Hardware/Modding⠀➾ o ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Physical_Computing_Used_To_Be_A_Thing⠀⇛ In the early 2000s, the idea that you could write programs on microcontrollers that did things in the physical world, like run motors or light up LEDs, was kind of new. At the time, most people thought of coding as stuff that stayed on the screen, or in cyberspace. This idea of writing code for physical gadgets was uncommon enough that it had a buzzword of its own: “physical computing”. o ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Expensive_Camera,_Cheap_3D-Printed_Lens⠀⇛ If you’re a photography enthusiast, you probably own quite a few cameras, but the chances are your “good” one will have interchangeable lenses. Once you’ve exhausted the possibilities of the kit lens, you can try different focal lengths and effects, but you’ll soon find out that good glass isn’t cheap. Can you solve this problem by making your own lenses? [Billt] has done just that. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 529 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/03/09/From_OpenBSD_to_Linux_How_Pledge_can_Enhance_Linux_Security.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/03/09/From_OpenBSD_to_Linux_How_Pledge_can_Enhance_Linux_Security.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ From OpenBSD to Linux: How Pledge can Enhance Linux Security⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Mar 09, 2025, updated Mar 09, 2025 BSD's pledge() system call forces the current process into a restricted-service operating mode.

It has been a glorious journey, and I thank God for His love and grace throughout the application process up to this moment as I write this blog.

It emphasizes strong readability for humans while at the same time supporting strong typing as well as immediate and clear error reports. On small typos you get parse errors, rather than silently corrupted garbage. Much preferable to any and all of XML, JSON or YAML – though sadly these may be too ubiquitous now. TOML is frequently being used with the projects such as the Hugo static blog compiler, or the Cargo system of Crates (aka “packages”) for the Rust language. * ⚓ Matt Webb ☛ Anti-Schelling_points_and_waiting_for_my_barista-made coffee_(Interconnected)⠀⇛ So coffee is great for anti-Schelling points?

While Java has maintained a strong security record, incidents like Log4Shell have shown us that vigilance is crucial. We need a comprehensive approach to preventing vulnerabilities, from the Java JRE base container image to our Java application dependencies and the application code itself. Last year, I worked with a client who complained about vulnerabilities in their container base image for Node.js. That triggered me to do more research on base images, including Java. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1117 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/03/09/Today_in_Techrights.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/03/09/Today_in_Techrights.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Today in Techrights⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Mar 09, 2025 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇A_piece_of_paradise_in_the_heart_of_Brazil_This_stunning image_captures_the_iconic_beauty_of_Rio_de_Janeiro⦈_ ⚓ Updated This Past Day⠀⇛ 1. ⚓ No,_We_Don't_Want_to_Go_"Viral"_(and_You_Probably_Don't,_Either)⠀⇛ "Viral" junk gets forgotten quickly 2. ⚓ Thinking_About_Abandoning_'Google_News'_Altogether_Due_to_Easy Poisoning_by_LLM_Slop⠀⇛ As long as Google News keeps sending traffic to these leeches, it'll be very hard to justify relying on Google News for anything at all ⚓ New⠀⇛ 3. ⚓ Graveyard_of_Mastodons:_A_Vast_Number_of_Inactive_Accounts⠀⇛ More than 80% of users in mastodon.social (the "big one") are no longer active 4. ⚓ Gemini_Links_08/03/2025:_Reading_Cory_Doctorow's_'Little_Brother', Abandoning_GAFAM_Forever⠀⇛ Links for the day 5. ⚓ Windows_is_Being_Eradicated⠀⇛ On the Web, in Africa in particular, user strings or UAs that say "Windows" are becoming more rare 6. ⚓ For_International_Women's_Rights_Day_(Today)_Staff_Representatives_at the_European_Patent_Office_(EPO)_Opened_Up_on_Gender_Discrimination_at the_Office⠀⇛ Office discrimination against women is widely known; unless you sleep with men in management 7. ⚓ Links_08/03/2025:_International_Women's_Day,_Software_Patents_Being Squashed⠀⇛ Links for the day 8. ⚓ Under_the_Pen_Name_"John_O'Donnell"_(LLM_Slop,_Not_Real_Article_or Author)_LinuxLinks_Pushes_Spammy_Page⠀⇛ it happened some hours ago. 9. ⚓ Links_08/03/2025:_Tariff_Self_Harm_and_Mostly_Solved_Diseases_Making_a Comeback⠀⇛ Links for the day 10. ⚓ Links_08/03/2025:_Climate_Change_Causing_Food_Shortages,_Selling_Off Chrome_Still_in_the_Cards⠀⇛ Links for the day 11. ⚓ Gemini_Links_08/03/2025:_Driving_in_Japan,_GrapheneOS,_Tariffs_Silver Lining⠀⇛ Links for the day 12. ⚓ Working_Like_a_Pack_of_Hyenas,_the_Microsofters_Try_Hard_to_Hide_the Truth_and_Actively_Censor_Critics⠀⇛ They even target women 13. ⚓ The_Fall_of_the_Open_Source_Initiative_(OSI):_Bylaws_of_the_OSI_a Shocking_Oversight⠀⇛ That's what the OSI is right now: a salesperson 14. ⚓ Links_08/03/2025:_Microsoft_Failures,_Further_Attacks_on_Speech_in_Hong Kong⠀⇛ Links for the day 15. ⚓ Gemini_Links_08/03/2025:_Physical_Albums,_Analog_Computing,_Deleting All_Social_Control_Media⠀⇛ Links for the day 16. ⚓ Over_at_Tux_Machines...⠀⇛ GNU/Linux news for the past day 17. ⚓ IRC_Proceedings:_Friday,_March_07,_2025⠀⇛ IRC logs for Friday, March 07, 2025 ========================================================================= The corresponding text-only bulletin for Saturday contains all the text.

World ☛ 10_Linux_commands_for_testing_connectivity_and_transfer rates⠀⇛ There are quite a few tools that can help test your connectivity on the Linux command line. In this post, we’ll look at a series of commands that can help estimate your connection speed, test whether you can reach other systems, analyze connection delays, and determine whether particular services are available. * ⚓ Network World ☛ 7_time-saving_Linux_commands⠀⇛ Some Linux commands can make your time on the command line easier and more productive. This post covers some commands that can come in very handy. * ⚓ Network World ☛ Showing_memory_usage_in_Linux_by_process_and_user⠀⇛ There are several commands for checking up on memory usage in a Linux system. Focusing on which processes and users are consuming the most memory can benefit from a few carefully crafted tools and commands. * ⚓ HowTo Geek ☛ What_Are_Virtual_Machines,_and_How_Do_They_Work?⠀⇛ You’ve probably heard phrases like “Spin up a virtual machine” or “Try it out in a virtual machine.” But what are virtual machines, and how can you make use of them? * ⚓ HowTo Geek ☛ 4_Ways_to_Make_a_File_in_the_Linux_Terminal⠀⇛ I'm a Linux terminal fan, always on the lookout for ways to perform common operations directly from the command line. One such operation I often perform in the terminal is the quick creation of a file. Several Linux commands allow us to create files without leaving the terminal. § Create Files With No Content Sometimes, you just need a placeholder—a file that's empty and ready to be filled later. There are a couple of ways to accomplish this in the terminal. For example, you can use the touch command to generate single or numerous empty files, or use the redirection operator to create a single empty file. * ⚓ HowTo Geek ☛ History_of_the_Unix_Terminal:_How_Video_Killed_the_Printer Star⠀⇛ Before there were modern Linux desktops, people used terminals to interact with computers. How did they get from printing terminals to modern displays? * ⚓ HowTo Geek ☛ The_Internet_From_Your_Terminal:_8_Ways_to_Use_cURL⠀⇛ The curl command-line tool is one of the most useful and versatile programs you can learn. Its versatility and comprehensive HTTP implementation mean that, if there’s a URL for it, curl can do it. * ⚓ HowTo Geek ☛ Every_Linux_File_Has_an_Execute_Bit._Here’s_What_That Means⠀⇛ The basic Linux file permission system is simple and robust, and it’s no surprise that it’s survived intact for over 50 years. But the execute bit is a confusing element, one that is worth understanding in detail. § What Is the Execute Bit and How Can I See What It Is? Every file on a Linux system has a set of permissions that control what can be done with it: can it be read, written, or executed? There are three levels of user, each with its own set of permissions: the owner of the file (user), members of the group that owns the file, and everyone else (other). ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1669 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/03/09/today_s_howtos.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/03/09/today_s_howtos.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ today's howtos⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Mar 09, 2025 * ⚓ Michael Kjörling ☛ Overwriting_a_storage_device_with_random_data_(on Linux)⠀⇛ Note: Do not do this with a SSD, including NVMe SSDs. SSDs rely on processes known as garbage collection and wear levelling to reduce wear, which are short-circuited if you do to it what I propose here. For typical magnetic media such as rotational hard disk drives, however, there is no significant downside to this (other than the wallclock time the process takes to perform). * ⚓ University of Toronto ☛ How_SAML_and_OIDC_differ_in_sharing information,_and_perhaps_why⠀⇛ In practice, SAML and OIDC are two ways of doing third party web-based authentication (and thus a Single Sign On (SSO)) system; the web site you want to use sends you off to a SAML or OIDC server to authenticate, and then the server sends authentication information back to the 'client' web site. Both protocols send additional information about you along with the bare fact of an authentication, but they differ in how they do this. * ⚓ Thomas Rigby ☛ Why_I_don't_bother_with_post_production⠀⇛ I'll caveat all of this with saying again this is only one way of taking pictures. Other people who aren't me have their own reasons for editing images. I'm not saying what I do is right, it's just right for me. If I was selling my photography or working on a commission, I may think differently. * ⚓ Josh Betz ☛ CSS_Verified_Badge⠀⇛ I’ve always liked the idea of visually differentiating my comments to make it clear when I’m replying. Some sites use a “verified” badge for this, and for a while, I did the same with an icon font. I removed the icon font along with the recent optimization work and found a way to achieve a similar verified badge effect with just a few lines of CSS—no icon font needed. * ⚓ Johnny Decimal ☛ 22.00.0101_My_data_storage_&_backup_strategy⠀⇛ By email, Dylan asked about my data storage and backup strategy. In answering, I thought it'd be useful enough to formalise here. * ⚓ Jeremy Cherfas ☛ A_Little_Learning_...⠀⇛ The immediate trigger was an email from someone about dark mode and how I wasn't supporting it. I made the minimum possible changes and immediately discovered that they did nothing to improve the look of the place, even though I never use dark mode myself. Something had to be done. * ⚓ University of Toronto ☛ The_OpenID_Connect_(OIDC)_'sub'_claim_is surprisingly_load-bearing⠀⇛ OIDC (OpenID Connect) is today's better or best regarded standard for (web-based) authentication. When a website (or something) authenticates you through an OpenID (identity) Provider (OP), one of the things it gets back is a bunch of 'claims', which is to say information about the authenticated person. One of the core claims is 'sub', which is vaguely described as a string that is 'subject - identifier for the end-user at the issuer'. As I discovered today, this claim is what I could call 'load bearing' in a surprising way or two. * § idroot⠀➾ o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_aaPanel_on_Fedora_41⠀⇛ aaPanel has emerged as a powerful open-source alternative to traditional web server control panels, offering an intuitive graphical interface that simplifies server management tasks.

The feed recovery tool is designed to help find feeds that are broken. The list of common feed paths would be particularly useful in instances where: 1. A site’s feed moves without a redirect, and; 2. The site’s feed is not linked via a rel=alternate on the site’s homepage. * ⚓ Yury Molodtsov ☛ The_Sad_State_of_Web_Browsers⠀⇛ While web browsers have become essential operating systems for modern computing, most, like Chrome and Safari, are outdated or limited, and innovative alternatives like Arc have struggled to succeed. Where does this leave us? * ⚓ Dan MacKinlay ☛ Feed_readers⠀⇛ I’ve been told to use Twitter or Facebook for this, but… no. Those systems are designed to waste time with stupid distractions to benefit someone else. Facebook is informative in the same way thumb sucking is nourishing. Telling me to use someone’s social website to gain information is like telling me to play poker machines to fix my financial troubles. Stop that. Contrarily, I want to find ways to summarise and condense information to save time for myself. That’s what feeds were designed for. New to this game? You know what podcasts are? Podcasts are a type of feed. An audio feed. If I care about news articles and Tumblr posts and not just audio, then I can still use feeds — feeds of text instead of audio. Any website can have a feed. Many do. * ⚓ OMG Ubuntu ☛ Kagi_is_Bringing_Orion_Web_Browser_to_Linux⠀⇛ Kagi, the company behind a paid, private search engine of the same name, has announced it’s bringing its Webkit-based Orion web browser to Linux. In a post on BlueSky, Kagi said: “We’re thrilled to announce that development of the Orion Browser for GNU/Linux has officially started!”. Orion is currently only available on macOS and iOS but was built to be better than Apple’s own Safari, and best Surveillance Giant Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and other browsers in many areas. ╘══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╛ ¶ Lines in total: 2160 ➮ Generation completed at 02:50, i.e. 22 seconds to (re)generate ⟲
