🎉🥳 Thank you so much for your support!
Quality of life and bug fixes
- Wake-On-LAN is now automatically enabled for all Ethernet devices
- The screenshot service is now disabled by default.
- The new Onboarding app is now the default presentation.
- The theme was updated with bigger fonts and prettier icons. It’s now much easier to use on high-resolution displays:
- There’s two new tools added: a text editor and a file manager. We think, we might have overdone the lightweight thing a bit. These are just handy.
- Unattended upgrades are disabled as these sometimes froze boxes.
Full Changelog: 22.04...24.04
Control Center
- We updated the flask version. Thank you @oleprinds for your help!
- There is now a UI for setting the timezone

Packages
Onboarding
We now have a pretty onboarding app that will greet new users after the installation process and provides some first step information.
Compositor
The picom compositor is now an addon so you can enable or disabled it at your will
New media player
The image slideshow has been removed and and the video player has been updated to loop over all images and videos in the /assets/datafolder. This now makes a neet looping media player that can replace most uses of e. g. Brightsign players.
