OMG! Ubuntu!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: <a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/News" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#News</a> <a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/AppUpdates" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AppUpdates</a> <a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/Elgato" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Elgato</a> <a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/Lrr" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Lrr</a> <a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/Qemu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Qemu</a> <a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/Typhoon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Typhoon</a> :sys_omgubuntu: <a href="https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2025/04/linux-app-release-roundup-april-2025" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2025/04/linux-app-release-roundup-april-2025</a>
