AerynOS 2026.01

Given System76's move to a more regular release cycle for COSMIC DE, we are able to land updates to our repository more frequently. This month, System76 landed COSMIC 1.0.3 with some key updates including support for rounded corners and window shadows across all applications and additional appearance settings being made available. This month sees the inclusion of GNOME 49.3 which is a stable bug-fix release with updates across the GNOME stack. Some key updates include: Nautilus file manager no longer wastes resources on images with larger dimensions; GNOME Control Center fixes for time zone searching and monitoring app filter changes in the Applications panel; Loupe improvements in performance. Plus many more fixes. KDE Plasma has been updated to 6.5.5, KDE Frameworks to 6.22.0 and KDE Gear to 25.12.1. Official announcement Download AerynOS
