Firefox 149 brings free VPN, tab splits and better Linux integration

Создан форк systemd без хранения возраста. GrapheneOS отказался верифицировать возраст

Основан форк системного менеджера systemd, позиционируемый как вариант, избавленный от кода, который может использоваться для слежки за пользователями. Создатель форка намерен поддерживать кодовую базу синхронизированной с веткой main из основного репозитория systemd. В настоящее время изменения сводятся к удалению недавно принятого в systemd кода, добавляющего в userdb поле birthDate с датой рождения пользователя, а в утилиту homectl опцию "--birth-date' для установки возраста.
