Ubuntu 26.04: Release Date and New Features
The development for Ubuntu 26.04 LTS has started and it's time to start looking towards the features and changes it is bringing.Abhishek Prakash (It's FOSS)
Wrote a blog post, instead of another GitLab Snippet, on upgrading our two #Tor relays to use the new Happy Families feature that was released yesterday in Tor 0.4.9.5. All in all, it was extremely uncomplicated to set up, and maybe that can encourage more people to try it out sooner rather than later! 😎
The post assumes some likely #Debian and #Ubuntu specifics, but most should apply to other distributions as well. Blog post at ahf.me/blog/2026/02/13/upgradi…
