On this episode of This Week in Linux, we got a ton of big news. We’ve got distro news from Red Hat for RHEL 8.4, SUSE made a lot of announcements at SUSECON, we’ve got a new release from GeckoLinux making some interesting changes. In App News, we’ll talk about the latest releases of the popular text editor, Sublime Text and Element’s new featured called Spaces and why I’m excited for it. Then we’ll just into the Hardware space with new laptops from Entroware and Tuxedo Computers plus a really cool hardware topic involving Space and Satellites. Later in the show, we’ve got a topic to cover that has quite a bit of Drama attached to it, that is the news regarding the situation around Freenode IRC network.
