Kali Linux now has official support for the Pine 64 PinePhone and PinePhone Pro.
This support has come in the form of a new mobile-focused distro called '**Kali NetHunter Pro**'.
They are marking it as a new beginning for Kali Linux and [NetHunter][5]; this distro has been optimized for mobile devices and can be dual-booted alongside the main OS from an SD card.
In addition, they have also hinted at a future release of alternative versions of Kali NetHunter Pro.
These will feature Plasma Mobile alongside new installers for installing Kali NetHunter Pro onto the internal flash memory of a device.
#### Return to the Microsoft Azure Marketplace

[Offensive Security][8], the company behind Kali Linux, mentions that the publishing process has now been automated thanks to [kali-cloud build-scripts][9].

#### New Desktop Environments

Usually, Kali Linux uses the lightweight Xfce desktop environment as its default desktop environment.
But now, it also features support for the recent KDE Plasma and GNOME versions.
**In the case of Plasma:** Kali Linux now features KDE Plasma 5.26; it is meant to improve the overall desktop experience and has bought in many tweaks and improvements.
**In the case of GNOME:** Including the usual enhancements with [GNOME 43][12], they have also added a few tweaks of their own.
A new GTK3-based theme has been added based on the [adw-gtk3][13] project with a few of Kali's tweaks.
Then, the new 'gnome-text-editor' replaces 'gedit' and comes with an updated Kali theme.
#### QEMU image
They have also added a new [QEMU image][14] to their pre-generated image library in the hopes that it will make it easier for people to implement Kali Linux on self-hosted environments like [Proxmox Virtual Environments][15], [virt-manager][16], or [libvirt][17].
