This allows them to be updated independently
Support for the legacy xkeys layouts has been removed.
The new layouts have been the default behaviour since 3.2, and accurately reflect the real layout instead of trying to squeeze the layout into multiple 32 button pages.
📣 CORE FEATURES AND IMPROVEMENTS
Modules are now installable plugins, allowing them to be updated independently
Add Logic: if statement action
Improved internal: abort actions, to give more granular control of what to abort
Restructure app navigation
Refinement of getting-started guide, to better handle scrolling
Remove support for legacy xkeys layouts
Allow custom variables descriptions to be edited
Allow editing custom variable value as object
Indicate type of each variable
Handle body data in HTTP api setting custom variable
Support for Mirabox Stream Dock 293V3 and N4
Reimplement support for Contour Shuttle
Support Resolve Replay Editor

🐞 BUG FIXES
Limit ui session lockout duration, to avoid browser crash
Support HTTP_PROXY environment variables for module store api calls
Emulator button presses on ios double triggering
Adjust text vertical alignment on buttons
🧩 NEW & UPDATED MODULES
Modules are now distributed independently, and are no longer reported here
Questionable puns aside, it’s Pride Month and we’re excited to celebrate by bringing you these updates hand-made by real LGBTQIA+ community members from around the world!—and possibly some straight cis folks too. This rainbow of releases includes some important accessibility updates, tons of bug fixes, and of course a few new features.
Window Manager & Dock
Another absolutely massive release of our window manager is out that fixes about 20 reported issues and a brand new Gesture Controller thanks to Leonhard and Leo. You can now Swipe up in Multitasking View to close windows, app titles in Multitasking View are now always shown—making them accessible for touch screen setups—and screenshots taken with a keyboard shortcut will send a notification that you can use to view it in Files, just to name a few headlining features. If you want to read the full release notes, Good Luck Babe they’re quite long.
A new release of our Dock is also out which brings back a couple of old Plank features: showing multiple dots for apps with multiple running windows and cycling through app windows when you hold a drag-n-drop over its icon. Plus you can now open context menus with a long-press. And there’s a number of bug fixes including things related to hide modes and memory usage. Thanks again to Leo and Leonhard for their hard work here.
System Settings
Leonhard fixed a crash when setting custom hotcorner commands and we now only show the Applications Menu hotcorner action in its corresponding panel corner—that’s top-left for folks reading left-to-right and top-right for folks reading right-to-left. Plus there’s a new option to enable hotcorners even while an app is fullscreened.
As a follow up to last month’s fixes, choosing light or dark mode in System Settings will now properly snooze your schedule instead of disabling it all together—a great convenience for those of us who suffer from eye strain or headaches and need to occasionally reach for that dark mode during the day. Plus, the Reduce Motion setting now covers a whole new range of animations—perfect for folks who get motion sick or find animations distracting.
Leonardo tackled a couple of crashes in Display settings including one when mirroring, and another when new displays are attached while System Settings is open. We fixed an issue that prevented CalDAV accounts from connecting in Online Accounts settings. And Alain snuck in a few design tweaks, fixing button alignments etc.
And More
Thanks to feedback from Aaron, Notifications and the Shortcut Overlay both got releases that add screen reader support. Corentin addressed some Flatpak sandbox issues with an updated Apparmor Profile—especially notable if you’d had trouble with Steam. We now use BeaconDB as our location services provider. And thanks to Ryo we’re now shipping the latest version of GNOME Web which brings improved performance and web compatibility as well as a redesigned bookmarks sidebar.
Get These Updates
As always, pop open System Settings → System on elementary OS 8 and hit “Update All” to get these updates plus your regular security, bug fix, and translation updates. Or set up automatic updates and get a notification when updates are ready to install!
Community Pride
I want to take a little space to say that our community is for everyone regardless of gender or sexual identity. We’ve long been made up of lots of different kinds of folks and I’m really proud of that. Open Source software should never be a space that is restricted to a narrow set of identities. In a time where many companies are withdrawing their support for the LGBTQIA+ community, I think it’s incredibly important that we make a strong statement against hate and don’t give in to the pressure to erase queer people in some sad attempt to be “apolitical”. Free Software has always been political, and its politics are freedom and inclusivity and so are ours.
Sponsors
At the moment we’re at 23% of our monthly funding goal and 336 Sponsors on GitHub! Shoutouts to everyone helping us reach our goals here. Your monthly sponsorship funds development and makes sure we have the resources we need to give you the best version of elementary OS we can!
Monthly release candidate builds and daily Early Access builds are available to GitHub Sponsors from any tier! Beware that Early Access builds are not considered stable and you will encounter fresh issues when you run them. We’d really appreciate reporting any problems you encounter with the Feedback app or directly on GitHub.

On this day, 25 years ago, the very first public version of Audacity was released, Audacity 0.8.
Audacity 0.8 was very different to what we have today: It couldn’t record, it couldn’t use plugins, and it could only export as WAV, AIFF, SF and AU.
Since then, a lot has happened. Audacity 1.0 was released two years later, sporting a logo and layout that’s still recognizable today. PCs have turned notably less boxy and beige, and are much faster as well. They’re so fast in fact, that many features which would have been unthinkable 25 years ago are now very much possible - and even expected. We have worked tirelessly to improve Audacity’s audio editing capabilities, adding features like realtime effects, non-destructive edits and time stretching, a master channel and even some AI-powered effects which are actually useful.
We’re planning to release another minor patch (Audacity 3.7.4) in the next couple weeks, which among various bug fixes finally brings aforementioned AI effects to macOS.
In addition to that, we’re still working hard on Audacity 4.0, which won’t be quite yet a DAW – but will tackle a lot of UX snags, which made Audacity so far more annoying to use than necessary. We will soon post an update on what to expect exactly for Audacity 4.0.
Let’s celebrate with Audacity merch!
After 25 years of making it rather difficult to send any money our way, we finally have opened up a merch store at merch.audacityteam.org. Every purchase made will help support our full-size development team, and accelerate Audacity’s progress to becoming not just the free option for audio editing - but the best option.
We’ll add more designs over the coming months - follow us on YouTube or join our Discord to get notified when new merch drops!
By popular request, Full-Page Translations are now available within Firefox extension pages that start with the moz-extension:// URL scheme.
The New Tab custom wallpaper (and colors) option is now available! Your own image can be uploaded as your New Tab wallpaper or any custom color can be selected - from the brightest pink to dark gray. This feature will be rolling out gradually to new users and can also be enabled immediately via Firefox Labs. Additionally, new Wallpaper images and a new Celestial category have also been added.
Link Previews is currently available as an experimental feature which can be enabled via Firefox Labs in the Firefox settings. After enabling, use the Alt+Shift keyboard shortcut when hovering over a link to see the previews in action!
Address autofill has now been enabled for users in Australia and India.
Fixed
PNG images with transparency now keep their transparency when pasted into Firefox.
The upload performance of HTTP/3 has been significantly improved, particularly on resumed connections (QUIC 0-RTT) and high-bandwidth and high-delay connections.
Due to recent changes in how Chrome encrypts user data on Windows, the Firefox migration wizard can no longer directly import payment methods or passwords from Chrome. However, users can still export passwords from Chrome to a CSV file and then import them into Firefox using the migration wizard or the password manager.
The Review Checker feature is shutting down and will no longer be available after June 10, 2025.
Based on user requests from both Mozilla Connect and Stack Overflow, the filter setting in the Network panel is now preserved across DevTools Toolbox sessions.
The Debugger's directory root is now scoped to the specific domain where it was set, which aligns with typical usage and avoids applying it across unrelated domains. This builds on previous improvements such as a redesigned UI and easier removal of the root setting. Setting a directory root updates the Source List to show only the selected directory and its children. Learn more
The appearance of the paused line in the Debugger has been refined for better visibility, especially in high contrast mode.
Web Platform
The Temporal proposal, a better version of Date, is now enabled by default in Firefox.
Timer throttling for Workers is now supported.
Closed <details> elements are now searchable and can be automatically expanded if found via find-in-page.
Firefox now supports the hidden=until-found attribute, allowing content to be found via find-in-page when it's otherwise hidden by default.
window.getSelection().toString() now correctly returns the text serialization when text is selected in a text control, improving cross-browser interoperability on some sites.
Added support for requestClose() to HTMLDialogElement.
The built-in editor for contenteditable and designMode now handles collapsible white-space(s) before block boundaries and white-space sequences between visible content more consistently with Chrome. As a result, Gecko no longer inserts a padding <br> element after white-space before a block boundary, aligning behavior with other browsers.
Unresolved
Windows users with certain NVIDIA graphics adapters and multiple monitors running at mixed refresh rates may see graphics corruption after updating to Firefox 139. As a temporary workaround, set the gfx.webrender.dcomp-win.enabled preference to false in about:config and restart Firefox. This issue will be addressed in Firefox 139.0.1.
Community Contributions
With the release of Firefox 139, we are pleased to welcome the developers who contributed their first code change to Firefox in this release, 14 of whom were brand new volunteers! Please join us in thanking each of these diligent and enthusiastic individuals, and take a look at their contributions:
