        elementary OS 8.0.2 Available Now

        It’s been about 6 months since our last minor release and the team has been busy! For all of the details about what’s new since OS 8.0.1, make sure to check out our posts from May until now. In this post I’ll just be covering our progress over the last month up until the release of OS 8.0.2. OS 8.1 is due to be released before year end and that post will be The Big Oneβ„’ that wraps up every change since OS 8.0. So without further delay, let’s dive into what we did last month that made it in OS 8.0.2!

        Installer & Initial Setup

        The latest Installer incorporates fixes for a number of issues raised during accessibility testing. The β€œBefore Installing”, β€œTry or Install”, β€œChoose a Disk”, and β€œEncryption” views should all have much improved accessible labels, things like password quality feedback will now be read aloud by the screen reader, and we fixed a couple instances where the screen reader would announce text style markup. Plus, Leo added a few more safety checks for the custom install view that should prevent crashes with certain complex partition layouts, and the Installer should now always appear centered on screen.

        Initial Setup also includes the same password quality feedback improvements for screen readers and it will always appear centered on screen. Plus trailing hyphens and underscores are now allowed in usernames and we use a more reliable source of information for keyboard layouts, thanks to Ryo.

        Music

        The latest release of Music includes a number of important new features for managing the queue, including performance improvements for large queues. You can now remove individual track from a track’s context menu or clear the entire queue thanks to Oowoosh0. Jeremy and Leonhard implemented searching by track name. The queue and the last played track will be saved and restored thanks to Stella, and she added the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+O to add new files. Ryan added the Ctrl+Q shortcut to quit, and album art will now show in media controls in the panel and elsewhere. Plus Oowoosh0 fixed a couple of issues with long artists names or when using large system fonts.

        Terminal

        Leo Fixed an issue that caused keyboard focus to not be inside the first tab when opening a new window, and he fixed an issue where dropping in text that contain # would be cut off. Jeremy also fixed an issue with incorrect line breaks when pasting or dropping text while a process is running, made sure to always clear process finished icons when a tab is selected, and removed an old misfeature that would cause window sizes to be odd on certain display sizes.

        Hardware Enablement

        OS 8.0.2 includes the latest long-term support Hardware Enablement stack from Ubuntu, including Linux 6.14. This new version of the Linux kernel brings improved performanceβ€”especially while gaming, reduced power consumption for certain AMD and Intel chipsets and GPUs, new security features, and support for more gamepads, wifi devices, microphones, and more.

        And More

        Main menus are now properly marked in Camera, and Videos and can be opened with the keyboard shortcut F10. In Calculator, Alain replaced the β€œDel” button with an icon, and the β€œNew Window” action now shows in icon in places like keyboard shortcut settings. Trevor fixed a crash with screenshots which are much taller than they are wide and Ryo fixed an issue that caused screenshots not to be saved to custom locations.

        Ubuntu 25.10 (Questing Quokka) Beta released

        The Ubuntu Release team is pleased to announce the Beta release of the Ubuntu 25.10 Desktop, Server, WSL, and Cloud products.

        Ubuntu 25.10, codenamed Questing Quokka, continues Ubuntu’s proud traditionof integrating the latest and greatest open source technologies into ahigh-quality, easy-to-use Linux distribution. The team has been hard atwork through this cycle, introducing new features and fixing bugs.

        This Beta release includes images from not only the Ubuntu Desktop,Server, WSL, and Cloud products, but also the Edubuntu, Kubuntu, Lubuntu,Ubuntu Budgie, Ubuntu Cinnamon, UbuntuKylin, Ubuntu Studio, Ubuntu Unity,and Xubuntu flavours.

        The Beta images are known to be reasonably free of showstopper image build or installer bugs, while representing a very recent snapshot of 25.10 that should be representative of the features intended to ship with the final release expected on October 09, 2025.

        Happy 12th Birthday, Home Assistant!

        Home Assistant 12th Anniversary

        Every September, we celebrate the anniversary of Home Assistant’s first PR in 2013 – for our 12th birthday, we’re going all in on community again. Last month, we asked for submissions on how Home Assistant helps you, and today we will highlight our favorites! We will also take a look at all the cool milestones over the past year in the project, thanks to contributions from you all, and the new things coming up for the community.

        It’s a communal effort

        When I (Missy Quarry) joined as the Community & Social Media Manager in February 2024, I was still new to how an open source project the size of Home Assistant manages its community. Over the past 18 months, I’ve seen Home Assistant community members from all walks of life β€” whether DIY tinkerers or people simply looking to make small improvements at home β€” contribute in their own ways. By sharing your stories and inspiring others, you’ve helped the project grow.Β  For our 12th birthday, I want to celebrate these contributions, no matter the size or complexity. 😌

        Before I jump into celebrating all your amazing contributions and how they shape the projects managed by the Open Home Foundation, I have a couple of birthday presents for you. 🎁

        First, I’m thrilled to share our new Community website! Right now, it’s a simple hub to find community information with ease, but we expect to evolve this over the coming months (or so). You’ll find links to our official community platforms, information on events, and details on meetups, including how to get reimbursed for certain fees as a host. In the future, I’d like to include links to regional communities we’re aware of and showcase more of the kinds of stories I’ll be sharing today.

        Feel like something’s missing from this new page? Let me know!

        Next, we’ve been working hard to do more of our development in the open. Last September, I redesigned the Discord server and in doing so I gated the Developer category behind a role. This has made it more difficult to develop in the open with the channels hidden behind a role, so we’re switching things up.

        As of this week, the Developer category is now read-only for every member. Want to take a peek into the future of Home Assistant? Head to the #projects channel and see what contributors are talking about! Want to join in and contribute with either your feedback or skills? I’ve created an info thread for the channel that explains how to assign yourself either the Developer or Designer role and unlock the ability to chat in the threads.

        Let’s jump into those submitted stories now… 🀩

        Happily ever after

        In my opinion, the best thing about Home Assistant is its flexibility - you can integrate such a wide range of devices into it and use their data to build a unique-to-your-home experience. And that’s exactly why I wanted to hear how you, the community, use it in your own home to benefit you. Here are my favorite stories you submitted - I hope one inspires your next project. ✨

        • A coffee automation to improve Home Approval Factor. β˜•οΈ Jordan made a morning automation to avoid having the coffee grinder grind his morning mood.

        • u/katschung helped their girlfriend fully accept Home Assistant by creating a dashboard with a retrogame-style floor plan. πŸ•ΉοΈ

        • Sythsaz uses Home Assistant to make sure their pupper is fed. 🐾 β€œI’ve managed to make it so my dog’s food auto emails the vet then the response to the email gets put on my calendar so I know how long a bag of food lasts as well as adding the receipts to Google Drive.”

        • Inspired by PowerDisplayESPHome, JannickBlmndl made an LED matrix that helps their household be more sustainable by being energy flexible. It displays the live energy prices from their energy provider. πŸ“Š

        • Tano Spirits in Melbourne, Australia, uses Home Assistant to automate their Japanese Shochu distillery, inspired by a small brewing company in Singapore. 🍻

        • Several years ago, HillPhantom found that Home Assistant wasn’t quite ready for him. Over the past year, though, he’s now got Ollama set up with his Home Assistant Voice Preview Edition and has been building guides on how to make your own mmWave radar sensors in Home Assistant. πŸ‘‹πŸ»

        • Over just a few weeks, Pieter van Kampen recently integrated 190 devices that respond to voice control and more than 1200 active entities from his KNX home to create over 30 automations to help with everything from mowing the lawn to controlling shades based on the sun’s location and intensity. πŸͺŸ

        • MB used Zigbee buttons to help collect data for their son’s doctor after he developed some trouble sleeping. This gave excellent insight for the doctor to start looking into causes, and they even used the system remotely while doing further evaluation. πŸ“ˆ

        • Graham Hosking took automations to another level (before we did) with his AI Automation Suggester and Automation Inspector. It takes the load off your brain by helping come up with new, clever automations! πŸ€–

        • Wessam Lauf fell down the rabbit hole that is Home Assistant once he got his setup running. Inspired by the Graphite theme and after some LLM vibe-coding, he wrote a template for his very own theme, Frosted Glass - now available in HACS. 🎨

        • Too many of us anthropomorphize our homes, telling it to chill out when five things break the same day. Biofects took that to heart and created this Home Assistant avatar for his home (here’s a bonus, nightmare fuel first version). 🫣

        Developers! πŸ‘πŸ» Developers! πŸ‘πŸ» Developers! πŸ‘πŸ»

        Our community is more than developers, it’s true. But we wouldn’t be the largest open source project on GitHub if we didn’t have a vibrant and active developer community. This ship sails largely due to their contributions, and we genuinely appreciate all of their efforts.

        That’s why we’re eager to interview community members when we open new roles at the foundation. We’ve employed community members like Joostlek (who designed the new Integration Quality Scale and helps onboard new integrations into Core), Timo (who is our first ever Android developer and has focused on polishing the Android app), and Maxim (a talented developer from the Music Assistant community who works on both Music Assistant and ESPHome and is one of our newest additions to the team). Their contributions have helped shape how things work around here, but it was their contributions as community members that helped pave the way for their joining the foundation. These are just a select few of the several new hires at the foundation who were active community members.

        (Have you checked our jobs page recently to see what roles are open? πŸ‘€)

        With our community of contributors and working with Nabu Casa on the hardware design, we have successfully launched a few new pieces of hardware. The Home Assistant Voice Preview Edition brought in language experts from every corner of the world to help ensure our language coverage is the most robust in the industry. Thanks to contributors, we support languages like Greek, Icelandic, and more recently Irish Gaeilge! 😎 We had community contributors help make sure the Home Assistant Connect ZWA-2 was prepared for launch last month. Sincerely, we couldn’t be more grateful for your support and efforts in these spaces.

        Here are some fun stats from our GitHub contributors (commits on our Core repo):

        • Last 12 months (Sept - Aug) - 14,385
        • Previous 12 months - 14,503

        A SPECIAL CONGRATULATIONS to bdraco, who just last week surpassed balloob (the founder of Home Assistant) as the contributor with the most commits!

        Top 8 contributors of all time for home-assistant/core The top 8 contributors of all time in home-assistant/coreπŸ‘πŸ»

        This is just a small peek into all the hard work that goes into maintaining Home Assistant - we have more repositories than just Core, and every single contribution is valued.

        Honorable dev mention from the submitted community stories - I couldn’t leave Joostlek’s (joke) submission out. 🀣

        • Our very own Head of Developer Relations (his words), Joost Lekkerkerker, says Home Assistant helps keep him off the street. He’s just launched his new blog that talks about his vision of a smart home, and how he was inspired to not buy Tuya Wi-Fi lights after seeing my experience with some path lights.

        Our humble gratitude

        Community is the core of what we do and the heart of Home Assistant. We thrive because you care and contribute your valuable time to support our collective success. Whether you found our platform because you wanted more privacy from big tech, were intrigued by the number of choices implemented into a single app, or needed something to track your sustainability efforts β€” you support our values every day. Thanks for choosing us, and thank you for all you do to help support the foundation and the projects we maintain.

        A very special thanks to all our Home Assistant Cloud subscribers and anyone who has purchased our official Home Assistant hardware. These support the full-time development of Home Assistant (along with ESPHome, Music Assistant, and so much more), and are the easiest way to ensure these projects keep getting cool new features!

        We have more things coming down the line for you. In the near future, we plan on announcing a new merch store πŸ‘•. In the first half of next year, I’ll announce when Home Assistant Community Day 2026 will be. We’re already working with Nabu Casa on the next exciting hardware announcement (no spoilers…for now). And that’s not even touching the industry events we plan on attending, the State of the Open Home, and so much more. I’m excited to take you all on the journey we’re already working on over the next 12 months, and I’m always looking forward to another year of amazing contributions. 😌

        Companion v4.1.0 - Release Notes

        Ending support for macOS 11

        This is the last version of Companion to support macOS 11. Starting with Companion 4.2 you will need to be running macOS 12 or later.

        UI improvements

        This release focuses on polishing the UI.

        A major addition is "collections" β€” a way to group connections, triggers, or custom variables so you can manage or enable/disable them together. Collections make organising complex setups and toggling related items during events much easier.

        connection-collections

        We also made a number of small adjustments to improve clarity and flow, such as reworking table layouts in many places.

        surfaces-list

        These changes prioritise organisation and usability so you can work more quickly.

        Local variables

        On each button or trigger you can now define local variables. These variables are scoped to that single button or trigger β€” they do not exist outside of it. Local variables can be configured in a few ways:

        • Work like custom variables (can hold a static value and be changed by actions).
        • Be expression-driven (value is the result of an expression evaluated when needed).
        • Take the value of a feedback.

        A key point: not all actions and feedbacks support local variables. Supported items will show a globe icon to indicate compatibility. We're working to broaden support; modules will add compatibility over time and further improvements are planned for 4.2.

        local-variables

        Improving support for expressions

        Expressions let you build more complex configurations and transform data flowing into or out of connections. They allow you to normalise, combine, or conditionally modify values before they're consumed or sent.

        The new Expression Variables page lets you define variables computed from expressions. These can be referenced wherever connection or custom variables are accepted; their value is calculated from the expression you provide.

        expression-variables

        Expression variables can:

        • Return a computed value from an expression.
        • Depend on other variables, feedbacks, connection state, or local variables defined on a button/trigger (so you can break complex logic into sub-expressions or take input from feedbacks).
        • Be used anywhere standard variables are used (actions, feedbacks, connection fields, etc.).

        Notes:

        • Circular dependencies between variables are possible but discouraged; they will be rate-limited and can incur a notable performance cost.

        Custom backup rules

        Companion now supports custom backup rules, allowing you to schedule backups, and keep more restore points.

        You can pick how often to run, where to store them, choose how many to keep (auto-pruned), and select the file format.

        Tip: Saving backups to a synced folder (Dropbox, OneDrive, or similar), automatically keeps an off-site copy β€” great for extra safety and easy access across machines.

        Full Changelog: v4.0.3...v4.1.0

        •  

        Firefox 143.0

        New

        • On Windows, Firefox now supports running websites as web apps pinned directly to the taskbar. These are sites that you can pin and run as simplified windows directly from the taskbar without losing access to your installed add-ons. This feature is not currently available for Firefox installs from the Microsoft Store.

        • Tabs can now be pinned by dragging them to the start of the tab strip, making it easier to keep important sites within reach.

          Screenshot showing the drag and drop area for pinning tabs

        • Copilot from Microsoft can now be chosen as a chatbot to use in the sidebar for quick access without leaving your main view.

        • When a site asks for camera access, it can now be previewed inside the permission dialog. This is especially helpful when switching between multiple cameras.

        • The Firefox address bar can now show you important dates and events. This feature supports displaying events (e.g. β€œMother’s Day”) in the United States, United Kingdom, Germany, France, and Italy regions.

        • Firefox has expanded its Fingerprinting Protection by reporting constant values for several more attributes of user's computers.

        • When downloading a file in Private Browsing mode, Firefox now asks whether to keep or delete it after that session ends. You can adjust this behavior in Settings.

          Screenshot showing setting for always deleting files

        • Firefox now supports Windows UI Automation, which improves support for accessibility tools such as Windows Voice Access, Text Cursor Indicator and Narrator.

          This feature is part of a progressive roll out.

          What is a progressive roll out?

          Certain new Firefox features are released gradually. This means some users will see the feature before everyone does. This approach helps to get early feedback to catch bugs and improve behavior quickly, meaning more Firefox users overall have a better experience.

        Fixed

        Enterprise

        Developer

        • Unchecking the Group Similar Messages setting now prevents successive similar messages from being grouped so that all messages are displayed in the output.

        • Switching between unmodified and pretty printed sources in the debugger no longer opens a new tab for pretty printed content.

        • When the Inspector is focused, the eyedropper can now be launched to pick a color via the Ctrl+Shift+Y keyboard shortcut.

        Web Platform

        • Firefox now supports xHE-AAC audio playback on Windows 11 22H2+, macOS, and Android 9+.

        • Firefox now uses an updated grid sizing algorithm to better align with the CSS Grid specification. Grid layouts that use percentage row sizes or grid items containing elements with aspect ratios (such as images) will now render correctly in more cases.

        • <input type=color> now recognizes the CSS <color> format in addition to the color hex format (#ffffff). This means that color names like black and more complex strings like rgb(200 200 200) are now valid inputs. For now the value will always be converted to the hex format.

        • Restrictions were removed that prevented setting the display property on <details> elements, and a ::details-content pseudo-element was added to style the expandable/collapsible contents of those elements.
