Tails 6.0, based on Debian 12 (Bookworm) and GNOME 43, introduces various new features including error detection on Persistent Storage, automatic mounting of external devices, protection against malicious USB devices, Dark Mode and Night Light options, easier screenshots and screencasts, simplified Gmail setup in Thunderbird, and Diceware passphrases in additional languages. The release also updates several included applications such as Tor Browser, Electrum, KeePassXC, Inkscape, Audacity, Gimp, and Kleopatra, while removing desktop icons, certain options from the Files browser's shortcut menu, and GtkHash. Additionally, it addresses fixed issues regarding special characters in the screen keyboard and acknowledges known issues related to OnionShare and automatic device mounting's interference with the Back Up Persistent Storage utility.
