Patroncast - S04E26 - French politics rant

Hey everyone!

Today is going to be a weird one, which probably won't capture the interest of a lot of you: were going to talk about French politics, as the far right party is poised to rise to power in France.

If you don't care about this, don't worry, next week should be back to the usual Linux & Open Source rant :D

Have a great week!

Vote on July's Topics!

Hey everyone!

Here is what I'll be working on in July, and what you can vote on!

  • Linux News: as usual, every Saturday, so 4 of these videos in July

  • Cosmic Desktop Alpha: for real this time, the date seems set to the end of the month, so after 4 months of me saying I'll review the alpha, I might finally be able to do so!

  • There is no "best" desktop: just a little opinion piece on the heated state of conversation about desktops and tiling ...
