Convey is a GTK4/libadwaita fork of Linux email app Geary

Convey is a new Linux email client based on the code of Geary, remade with a GTK4/libadwaita UI and support for Microsoft 365 accounts. Somewhat like traditional mail, it arrives not long after I wrote about another new Linux email client, Postcard, which also draws its inspiration from Geary – the source being much-loved by Linux users, but whose last stable release was in 2024. Convey is a self-described hard fork of Geary so, unlike Postcard, it isn’t a tribute so much as a continuation – albeit an unofficial one: the Flathub listing is clear that it is “not affiliated with […]

📰 Google's "Painful To Maintain" Binder C Linux Driver Being Removed In Favor Of Rust

Google's Binder driver written in the C programming language has long been part of the mainline kernel as the inter-process communication (IPC) mechanism used on Android. The past few years the Binder driver was rewritten in Rust as one of the first "real" drivers in the Rust programming language. The Rust Binder driver was upstreamed in Linux 6.18 and now for the upcoming Linux 7.
