THE Google ‘News’ (Gulag Noise [1, 2]) mentions of “Linux” diminish again, partly because sites that used to cover GNU/Linux every day suddenly stopped a few weeks ago (our coverage of it had struck a nerve, attracting about 3,000 readers).

I assume this won’t affect the background process too much...
It’s now been a little under two months since the release of the Wayland-based Raspberry Pi OS Bookworm. Whenever we do a major version release like this, we invariably spend the next few weeks fixing all the bugs that real users have found but our pre-release testing didn’t, and then make a bug-fix release with them...
