Privacy-Preserving Ads Make a Debut on Brave Search
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
Brave Search is testing privacy-preserving ads. But, the Brave browser does not seem to block them by default.
|
||||
|
||||
![Privacy-Preserving Ads Make a Debut on Brave Search][1]
|
||||
|
||||
Brave Search is an independent search engine that claims not to track its users and provides a safe and secure search experience.
|
||||
|
||||
It aims to be a privacy-friendly alternative to the extensive tech services from Microsoft and Google.
|
||||
|
||||
With a [recent announcement][2], they introduced a new feature to Brave Search. The search will now show '_privacy-preserving_' ads as part of a global beta program.
|
||||
|
||||
What does this mean? Allow me to explain.
|
||||
|
||||
### Privacy-Preserving Ads: Meaning?
|
||||
|
||||
![brave search privacy preserving ads][3]
|
||||
|
||||
Brave is planning to run ads on their search platform; they claim that these ads are anonymous, are marked, and follow its commitment of putting users first.
|
||||
|
||||
These ads are said to be clearly labeled and are integrated into Brave Search.
|
||||
|
||||
To display relevant advertisements, Brave Search will only use your **search query, country, and device type**.
|
||||
|
||||
So, in theory, this should stop them from keeping a profile of your searches.
|
||||
|
||||
They also add that:
|
||||
|
||||
> Brave Search ads protect users’ data and anonymity, while supporting their access to independent and transparent search as a true alternative to Big Tech search engines.
|
||||
|
||||
This has been released as a beta test globally, where Brave Search users will be shown text-based ads in search results.
|
||||
|
||||
Users who opted for Brave Private Ads (for _Brave Rewards_) and are using the latest version of Brave won't be shown search ads since these are not yet eligible for BAT earnings.
|
||||
|
||||
Additionally, they offer a '**Search Premium**' subscription for an ad-free search experience, which costs **$3 per month**.
|
||||
|
||||
With this subscription, you get a completely ad-free search experience while also supporting Brave.
|
||||
|
||||
### Is This a Step in the Right Direction?
|
||||
|
||||
Even though Brave Search is based on an **open-source search project**[Tailcat][4], they have no plans to make it open-source.
|
||||
|
||||
So, Brave Search already has a red flag 🚩 for many privacy enthusiasts who prefer open-source solutions for their transparency.
|
||||
|
||||
**Will privacy-preserving ads make a difference, just like Brave Search's original claims for its search engine?**
|
||||
|
||||
Well, I certainly hope so. Why? **Because we need more competitors to Google**. And something is better than nothing.
|
||||
|
||||
Even without open-source code, we will have to sit back and see what kind of transparency they provide in their advertisement testing soon.
|
||||
|
||||
Though, the implementation of Brave's privacy-preserving ads has got a few users upset.
|
||||
|
||||
A [comment][5] made by a Reddit user on the official Subreddit of Brave Browser mentions:
|
||||
|
||||
> Putting in an exception for your own ads is in exceptionally bad taste. All the marketing fluff around "independent, private search" is not an excuse.
|
||||
|
||||
Brave Browser seems to be **not blocking Brave search ads** with its in-built ad-blocker (Brave Shields).
|
||||
|
||||
On that, a member of the Brave support team clarified:
|
||||
|
||||
> Shields at this time does not block 1st part, non tracking ads by default anyway (with the exception of setting to Aggressive, I believe) so it's actually just following the standard we've already set.
|
||||
|
||||
So, you can block the Brave search ads with the privacy protection settings set to aggressive, I believe?
|
||||
|
||||
However, not everyone prefers the aggressive blocker. So, let us see how things turn out for Brave search ad experimentation.
|
||||
|
||||
💭 **Thoughts? Feel free to share them in the comments section.**

Linux Mint 21.1 beta is now available for testing
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
![][1]
|
||||
|
||||
**Check out the new features of Linux Mint 21.1 beta, which is now slowly available for download in mirrors. The official announcement is awaited.**
|
||||
|
||||
![Linux Mint 21.1 beta Cinnamon desktop][2]
|
||||
|
||||
Linux Mint 21.1 is the first point release of the 21 series and will be released before Christmas this year. Codenamed “Vera”, which was [announced a few weeks back][3], is now available for beta testing.
|
||||
|
||||
The beta testing is expected to continue for at least a week before the final release. Since it is the first point, the feature list is not at that higher end. But some significant updates are arriving in the final release.
|
||||
|
||||
### Linux Mint 21.1 beta & new features
|
||||
|
||||
One of the biggest updates to the Driver Manager in this release is the ability to run the app with your user account without requiring a password to launch it. This is a major convenience, as it means you don’t have to enter a password every time you want to use the Driver Manager. In addition, when you remove a driver, the app now purges it from the system completely, ensuring that no trace of the driver remains on your computer.
|
||||
|
||||
Another key update to the Driver Manager is the ability to detect USB installation media and help you mount them. This is particularly useful if you’re installing software or drivers from a USB drive, as it makes the process much easier and more streamlined.
|
||||
|
||||
In addition to these updates, the Mint team has also included a feature for verifying the checksum of ISO files. This is an important part of any installation process, as it ensures that your ISO file is legitimate and hasn’t been tampered with. While other [utilities][4] are available for verifying ISO checksums, including command line tools, it’s nice to see this feature included in the default desktop environment.
|
||||
|
||||
Another change in this release is the default desktop view, which is expected to be updated. The default icons for the Computer, Home, Trash, and Network are now hidden from view, as the Computer icon is already included in the Panel, and the other icons are not used as frequently.
|
||||
|
||||
Other noteworthy updates in this release include the inclusion of Timeshift backports for prior releases (such as Mint 20.x) and an updated version of Blueman. Overall, this is a solid point release that includes several useful updates and bug fixes.
|
||||
|
||||
![New default icon set and bibata cursor][5]
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, you may notice the “green” icon sets and the cursor is different in the Cinnamon flavour. Linux Mint 21.1 brings the “Mint-y-Aqua” theme and the stunning “Bibata-modern” cursor theme to pair with it. Both of them look awesome together, giving a much-needed fresh vibe.
|
||||
|
||||
### Summary of changes
|
||||
|
||||
- First point release of Linux Mint 21, based on Ubuntu 22.04.1 release
|
||||
- Linux Kernel 5.15 LTS
|
||||
- Cinnamon 5.6.4 desktop
|
||||
- Xfce 4.16 desktop
|
||||
- MATE 1.26 desktop
|
||||
- Friendly driver manager
|
||||
- Cleaner default desktop view with fewer icons
|
||||
- Default theme changes to “Mint-Y-Aqua” from the green-based icons
|
||||
- New cursor theme: Bibata (one of the best cursor theme in Linux)
|
||||
- A bunch of stunning wallpapers
|
||||
- And an array of bug fixes
|
||||
|
||||
### Download and bug reporting for beta
|
||||
|
||||
While the team is preparing for the official announcement, the ISO images are slowly becoming available to the public. As always, being a beta release, it may have bugs. So use it with caution.
|
||||
|
||||
If you are running Linux Mint 21.0, don’t upgrade it yet. Wait for the final release.
|
||||
|
||||
Still, if you want to try it on a virtual machine, download the Cinnamon, Xfce and MATE flavours of this beta release from the torrent links below.
|
||||
|
||||
- [linuxmint-21.1-cinnamon-64bit-beta.iso.torrent][6]
|
||||
- [linuxmint-21.1-mate-64bit-beta.iso.torrent][7]
|
||||
- [linuxmint-21.1-xfce-64bit-beta.iso.torrent][8]
|
||||
|
||||
I will update the changelog here once it is available. And finally, report any issues or bugs at the dedicated [21.1 beta bug tracking page][9].
|
||||
|
||||
Cheers.

Linen is a Google-Searchable Open-Source Alternative to Slack and Discord
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
An interesting open-source alternative to Slack and Discord.
|
||||
|
||||
![Linen is a Google-Searchable Open-Source Alternative to Slack and Discord][1]
|
||||
|
||||
Linen is an interesting open-source project brewing up.
|
||||
|
||||
It aims to be an **open alternative to Slack and Discord**, focusing on making communities more accessible and helping reduce the support burden.
|
||||
|
||||
It could be worth adding it as an open-source Slack alternative, but it is in its **early stages of development** when publishing this.
|
||||
|
||||
**_What's different with Linen, exactly?_**
|
||||
|
||||
- **Open Source**
|
||||
- **Unlimited history retention**
|
||||
- **Communities are Google searchable**
|
||||
- **Supports sync from Slack and Discord**
|
||||
- **Eliminate the need to join Slack/Discord for information**
|
||||
|
||||
### Community-Focused Slack Alternative
|
||||
|
||||
[Linen][2] pitches itself as an open-source app for communities rather than primarily targeting teams for collaboration/communication.
|
||||
|
||||
![linen ui][3]
|
||||
|
||||
In contrast, Slack is primarily for team discussions and collaboration. You cannot share the conversation through a URL or find the discussions indexed on search engines like Google.
|
||||
|
||||
But with Linen, you can **find a URL for every conversation** that can be shared with anyone to view/join the conversation.
|
||||
|
||||
![linen message url][4]
|
||||
|
||||
Here's something for the test: [https://linen.dev/s/itsfoss/t/5099789/topic][5]
|
||||
|
||||
**You can also find this conversation listed on Google** (it may take time to find it exactly).
|
||||
|
||||
For example, suppose we are a community of an open-source project where we discuss an issue or a solution; listing it on Google enables more users to find out about it.
|
||||
|
||||
Here's an example of a conversation listed on Google that could help me if I was exploring solutions to fix my code issues with Kotlin:
|
||||
|
||||
![linen google search][6]
|
||||
|
||||
As a developer/user, I could view the conversation, get my answer, and move on without troubling anyone else in the community with a repeat question.
|
||||
|
||||
**Sounds lovely, right? Linen helps you enhance community support.**
|
||||
|
||||
Sure, you can use it for your team communication as well. But, it is a more appropriate solution to create an open community chat network.
|
||||
|
||||
Currently, it does not provide the feature to create a private community for the public. They only use it for internal team discussions, per their [GitHub page][7].
|
||||
|
||||
![][8]
|
||||
|
||||
### How To Get Started?
|
||||
|
||||
Linen does not support self-hosting at the moment. But, their roadmap on [GitHub][9] indicates that it has been planned for the near future.
|
||||
|
||||
So, you can [sign up for a free account][10] using the official cloud instance or opt for the business/premium edition to use custom domain/branding benefits for your team.
|
||||
|
||||
You can **import your Slack/Discord conversations for free**.
|
||||
|
||||
> 💡 The free community edition is hosted under Linen.dev where you rely on community support. Opt for its premium edition to get priority support.
|
||||
|
||||
Linen may not be for everyone, but it sounds like a useful idea for many communities and teams.
|
||||
|
||||

Apple Silicon GPU Driver is Now Available in Asahi Linux
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
We finally have a GPU driver for Apple M silicon systems on Asahi Linux.
|
||||
|
||||
![Apple Silicon GPU Driver is Now Available in Asahi Linux][1]
|
||||
|
||||
Asahi Linux aims to be a port of Linux for Apple Silicon Macs; work started on it back in 2020, right after the launch of Apple's M1 chips at the WWDC event.
|
||||
|
||||
A small team is behind all the development behind Asahi Linux and reverse engineering stuff; they have been quite busy since the last time we looked at their work.
|
||||
|
||||
Previously, they worked on improving support for Apple SoCs such as the M1, M1 Pro, and M1 Max. They provided varying levels of support for devices that used these chips.
|
||||
|
||||
It still is a work in progress, but promising results in 2022.
|
||||
|
||||
They have now taken it further by providing initial support for Apple Silicon GPUs by releasing drivers (in _alpha_).
|
||||
|
||||
That sounds great! 😃
|
||||
|
||||
Let me take you through the gist of it.
|
||||
|
||||
### Hardware Acceleration With Desktop Environments and Old Games
|
||||
|
||||
![asahi linux running quake3][2]
|
||||
|
||||
Introduced as an alpha-stage GPU driver, it can run desktop environments and a few games smoothly.
|
||||
|
||||
**The implementation:** The driver features a work-in-progress implementation of OpenGL 2.1 and OpenGL ES 2.0 for current Apple M-series systems.
|
||||
|
||||
They also mention that:
|
||||
|
||||
> These drivers have not yet passed the OpenGL (ES) conformance tests. There will be bugs!
|
||||
|
||||
So, you can expect plenty of hiccups along the way should you choose to run applications using these drivers.
|
||||
|
||||
**How it works now?:** In its current form, the driver can run desktop environments like GNOME and KDE Plasma with hardware acceleration.
|
||||
|
||||
Even older games like [Quake3][3] and [Neverball][4] can run quite well, with these and the desktop environments running at a solid **60 fps at 4k resolution**.
|
||||
|
||||
Many users may also notice that quite a few apps don't work with this driver right away. On that, the developers mention:
|
||||
|
||||
> Since the driver is still in development, there are lots of known issues and we’re still working hard on improving conformance test results. Please don’t open new bugs for random apps not working! It’s still the early days and we know there’s a lot of work to do.
|
||||
|
||||
**What does the future hold?:** The developers have said that while OpenGL (ES) 2 suffices for some applications, newer applications will require new features such as multiple render targets, multisampling, and transform feedback.
|
||||
|
||||
All of this can be achieved with OpenGL (ES) 3, and work on that has already started. But, it will need a lot of developmental effort to get ready.
|
||||
|
||||
They have also hinted at support for Vulkan in the future, although it is a long time in the making.
|
||||
|
||||
Here's what they tell about it:
|
||||
|
||||
> We’re working on it! Although we’re only shipping OpenGL right now, we’re designing with Vulkan in mind. Most of the work we’re putting toward OpenGL will be reused for Vulkan. We estimated that we could ship working OpenGL 2 drivers much sooner than a working Vulkan 1.0 driver, and we wanted to get hardware accelerated desktops into your hands as soon as possible.
|
||||
|
||||
When a Reddit user [asked][5] about **120 Hz support for MacBook Pro**, one of the maintainers had this to say:
|
||||
|
||||
> 120Hz is disabled because it still is capped at 60Hz if we do nothing and was having other weird issues. It's still unclear exactly how VRR works on macOS, we need to figure that out first.
|
||||
|
||||
It seems like Asahi Linux has a lot of room to grow, and improvements like this to GPU drivers on a new Silicon system should finally open up new opportunities in terms of performance.
|
||||
|
||||
Linux users have been asking for something like this for a long time, and it is now closer to becoming a reality than ever before.
|
||||
|
||||
If you are feeling adventurous and want to try the new GPU driver, you can try installing it on your Asahi Linux system. Refer to the [official announcement][6] for instructions to experiment with it.

Mastodon's Adoption Gets a Boost With Vivaldi Browser Integration
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
Vivaldi's making an effort to have more users join Mastodon with its new update. That's nice to see!
|
||||
|
||||
![Mastodon's Adoption Gets a Boost With Vivaldi Browser Integration][1]
|
||||
|
||||
Vivaldi browser is one of the best web browsers for Linux (Windows, macOS, and mobile platforms).
|
||||
|
||||
I know it is not an open-source pick, but it gets all the lead with its tab management, customizability, and productivity features. And it treats me better than Firefox nowadays (Mozilla, we still need you to do better)🙄
|
||||
|
||||
**Note:**_Vivaldi is **not open-source**. Most of it is based on Chromium, for which you can find the [source code][2]._
|
||||
|
||||
If you did not know, Vivaldi recently built a Mastodon instance (**Vivaldi Social**) to encourage people to use open-source and decentralized social media platforms.
|
||||
|
||||
It is one of the best Mastodon instances you can join:
|
||||
|
||||
To take this further, **Vivaldi 5.6 update** has integrated access to its Mastodon instance from within its web browser.
|
||||
|
||||
> 🐘 Hey! We are on [Mastodon][3] for a while; follow **us if you haven't already**! 😄
|
||||
|
||||
### Access Mastodon From Web Panels
|
||||
|
||||
Web panels on Vivaldi make it a breeze to multitask. You can keep browsing or working on what you want and still access additional services in a single click.
|
||||
|
||||
Here's what it looks like:
|
||||
|
||||
![mastodon on vivaldi][4]
|
||||
|
||||
I can access Vivaldi's Mastodon instance quickly.
|
||||
|
||||
Of course, you can add your custom web panel for any Mastodon instance you like.
|
||||
|
||||
![vivaldi web panel addition][5]
|
||||
|
||||
However, I believe out-of-the-box integration should encourage Vivaldi users to try Mastodon if they haven't yet.
|
||||
|
||||
In the official announcement, Vivaldi also explains it properly for its users:
|
||||
|
||||
> [Vivaldi Social][6] came into existence as we love the idea of distributed social networks based on open standards. We want to offer better alternatives to people to communicate in an algorithm-free environment with no surveillance capitalism, devoid of tracking or data profiling.The Mastodon server platform communicates through the [Activity Pub][7] standard, a decentralized social networking and messaging protocol recommended by the [World Wide Web Consortium (W3C)][8]. Any platform or application that implements ActivityPub becomes a part of a massive social network. This big social network is also called the [Fediverse][9] (“federated” + “universe”).
|
||||
|
||||
Before anyone gets their pitchfork ready, I want Vivaldi to be 100% open-source, but we also want more companies in the mainstream to adopt and encourage the use of open-source tech.
|
||||
|
||||
And I think Vivaldi has got an excellent approach to that.
|
||||
|
||||
So, this integration should ultimately let every Vivaldi (or Linux user) use Mastodon more than often.
|
||||
|
||||
In addition to this change, Vivaldi 5.6 release involves a couple of improvements that include:
|
||||
|
||||
- A new search engine (You.com)
|
||||
- Panels joining editable toolbars
|
||||
- Revamped settings page
|
||||
- Pin tab stacks (_this is exciting!_)
|
||||
|
||||
You can update the browser to get the latest version or download Vivaldi 5.6 on its official website.

FreeBSD 12.4 is out with 100+ improvements and fixes
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
![][1]
|
||||
|
||||
**FreeBSD 12.4 was released a few days back with several updates and improvements. Here’s a release roundup.**
|
||||
|
||||
FreeBSD is a UNIX-like operating system based on [U.C. Berkley’s BSD-Lite version][2]. It is primarily used for core infra systems, routers, networking devices, and possibly running in millions of devices. FreeBSD bundles thousands of packages from desktop apps to core modules, making it easier to build your system running this awesome operating system.
|
||||
|
||||
### FreeBSD 12.4 Release: Key updates
|
||||
|
||||
FreeBSD 12.4 is the 5th release of the current 12 stable series and coming up after a year’s package updates, improvements and bug fixes.
|
||||
|
||||
Key changes in the release include the OpenSSL version being updated to 1.1.1q, whereas OpenSSH is bumped up to 9.1p1. The LLVM toolchain suite was also upgraded to 13.0.0. Other key version upgrades include `ena` kernel driver 2.6.1, `file` 5.43, `libarchieve` 3.6.0 and `dma` 2022-01-27.
|
||||
|
||||
![FreeBSD 12.4 with Xfce desktop][3]
|
||||
|
||||
Furthermore, this release now allows multiple cores to process traffic to improve performance by `if_repair` driver. Also, the `tcpdump` command now allows users to set several rules which will be exposed as part of the `pflog` header.
|
||||
|
||||
On top of that, the `telnetd` daemon is deprecated in this version which should be noted for network professionals.
|
||||
|
||||
The total number of changes and fixes exceeds 100+, which you can read in detail in the [change log][4].
|
||||
|
||||
### Download and Upgrade
|
||||
|
||||
If you are running FreeBSD 12.3 version, you can upgrade your system by issuing the following commands:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
freebsd-update -r 12.4-RELEASE upgrade
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
freebsd-update install
|
||||
```
|
||||

Get ready to upgrade your video creation with Kdenlive 22.12
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
![][1]
|
||||
|
||||
**Kdenlive 22.12: the free and open-source video editor scores another sizable update.**
|
||||
|
||||
The best free and [open-source video editor][2] – Kdenlive 22.12, released with new filters, UI improvements, user-requested features and bug fixes. This release improves Kdenlive on top of its [already existing features][3] and gives you a platform to create professional-quality videos.
|
||||
|
||||
Here’s what’s new.
|
||||
|
||||
![Kdenlive 22.12 Running in Linux Mint][4]
|
||||
|
||||
### Kdenlive 22.12: New Features
|
||||
|
||||
A new “Timelines Guides” dock now lists all the timeline markers in your video project. Click on the timeline video clip to view the markers in this new dock. This is an imp[rovement in the marker features introduced in the past release.
|
||||
|
||||
In addition to that, three new audio graph filters were introduced. They are audio level visualization filter, spectrum filter and waveform filter. These can be used in keyframe animations for more granular controls. Talking about keyframes, you can now use the standard CTRL+C and CTRL+V to copy/paste keyframes.
|
||||
|
||||
Furthermore, if you are working in a complex timeline, you can now remove all the spaces between clips with two new options – remove spaces after playhead and all after playhead.
|
||||
|
||||
![Two new UI improvements on timeline][5]
|
||||
|
||||
Kdenlive also started work to move to Qt6 from Qt5 build for the upcoming releases. A continuous integration build pipeline is added for Qt6 to check the current build. However, the current version is not yet complete per the transition timeline. However, it is expected that Kdenline will be built with Qt6 as stable by mid of 2023.
|
||||
|
||||
On top of the above changes, here are some key updates on this release:
|
||||
|
||||
- More custom colour codes for categories
|
||||
- Improved marker management with edit, add/remove multiple markers and import/export.
|
||||
- Kdenlive now sends the content of the timeline to Glaxnimate (version >= 0.5.1), which then shows it as background.
|
||||
- Set maximum cache with custom data storage size
|
||||
- Option to hide the menu bar, replacing it with a hamburger menu
|
||||
- The settings panel is cleaned up with better visibility and removed obsolete entries
|
||||
- Work underway for Qt6 and KDE Frameworks 6 migration
|
||||
- Improved Track composition
|
||||
|
||||
### Download and upgrade
|
||||
|
||||
If you are already running Kdenlive via the official distro repo, you should get this update within a couple of days. Simply update your system to get this version.
|
||||
|
||||
Those of you running the Flatpak version, run the following command to get the update.
|
||||

Firefox 108 unlocks the power of music on the web with new WebMIDI API support
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
![][1]
|
||||
|
||||
**Firefox 108 is now available to download, bringing the following new features.**
|
||||
|
||||
The final Firefox release of this year is here – Firefox 108, closing an eventful year of this free and open-source web browser from Mozilla.
|
||||
|
||||
![Firefox 108 Running in Ubuntu][2]
|
||||
|
||||
### Firefox 108: Best new features
|
||||
|
||||
If you are a music enthusiast, then some good news for you. Firefox now supports the [WebMIDI API][3] inside your browser with proper access controls. When you try to access MIDI devices via Firefox, then you get a prompt for installing a “[site permission add-on][4]” to enable this API.
|
||||
|
||||
In addition, Firefox 108 enabled import maps by default, which means web pages can now control the behaviour of JavaScript imports more easily. And if you use Firefox, you’ll be happy to hear that it now supports proper colour correction for images tagged with ICCv4 profiles.
|
||||
|
||||
Furthermore, developers added a handy keyboard shortcut – press SHIFT+ESC to open the Process Manager and quickly identify any processes using too many resources. And on Windows 11, Firefox added efficiency mode for processes used in background tabs to help save on resources.
|
||||
|
||||
Elsewhere, your browser’s bookmark toolbar gets an option “Only show on New Tab” state, which now works correctly for blank new tabs. Also improved in this release is the handling of non-ASCII characters while exporting PDF forms from web pages.
|
||||
|
||||
If you are a web developer, Firefox 108 also arrives with a handful of Math function updates which are summarised alongside other vital changes:
|
||||
|
||||
- The `source` element supports `height` & `width` attributes when it is a child of a `picture` element.
|
||||
- Trigonometric functions are now enabled with the `layout.css.trig.enabled` preference set to true by default. This allows the use of sin(), cos(), tan(), asin(), acos(), atan(), and atan2() functions
|
||||
- CSS `calc-constant`type is implemented to allow for well-known constants such as pi and e within math functions
|
||||
- Container query length units are now supported via the the `layout.css.container-queries.enabled` preference, which is set to false by default
|
||||
|
||||
### Download and update
|
||||
|
||||
For Linux distributions, if you used Firefox via your distribution’s official repository, then you should get this update within a couple of days from today.
|
||||
|
||||
However, you can also download the compressed version of this release from the below page. For other download options, do visit our [Firefox download guide][5].

Kdenlive 22.12 Release Adds Useful New Features
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
Kdenlive 22.12 upgrade is here with nice enhancements across the board.
|
||||
|
||||
![Kdenlive 22.12 Release Adds Useful New Features][1]
|
||||
|
||||
Kdenlive is an open-source cross-platform video editing software built by the KDE community, which has been around since 2003.
|
||||
|
||||
Built using Qt and KDE Frameworks, it has been the editor of choice for many users out there.
|
||||
|
||||
Recently, the latest upgrade to it i.e Kdenlive 22.12 has been made available, let me take you through the release.
|
||||
|
||||
### 🆕 Kdenlive 22.12: What's New?
|
||||
|
||||
![kdenlive 22.12][2]
|
||||
|
||||
Kdenlive 22.12 features numerous improvements, with over 350 commits made. It brings in many new features, bug fixes, and prepares the code base for future releases.
|
||||
|
||||
Let me take you through some of the notable improvements with this release.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Revamped Guide and Marker System
|
||||
|
||||
![kdenlive 22.12 guides dock][3]
|
||||
|
||||
The guide and marker system on Kdenlive has received a major overhaul, with the key changes being:
|
||||
|
||||
- All marker and guide features are now made available in the new 'Guides' dock.
|
||||
- The 'Guides' dock also lets you easily seek, search, sort, and filter through the various markers and guides. It also allows for navigation with keyboard.
|
||||
- You can now create many categories to suit your needs, compared to the nine categories limit previously.
|
||||
- It is now also possible to edit, add, or remove multiple markers at a time, and the import/export of markers has been improved.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Improved Glaxnimate Integration
|
||||
|
||||
![kdenlive 22.12 glaxnimate integration][4]
|
||||
|
||||
Kdenlive already had support for Glaxnimate with its previous release, but now the developers have taken it a step further.
|
||||
|
||||
The editor now lets you send the content of your Kdenlive timeline to [Glaxnimate][5] (version >= 0.5.1), which will then show up in the background.
|
||||
|
||||
> 💡 Glaxnimate is an open-source 2D vector drawing and animation program.
|
||||
|
||||
This allows you to create animations that play together with your videos in a much easier fashion than was possible before.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Various UX Improvements
|
||||
|
||||
Kdenlive includes a variety of usability improvements, such as:
|
||||
|
||||
- A new hamburger menu in the toolbar that can be used instead of the menu bar.
|
||||
- 'What's This?' Text has been added in several places to show what a specific element does.
|
||||
- You can now define a maximum size for the cached data stored by Kdenlive in the environment settings.
|
||||
- The 'Settings' page has received a cleanup, and now features a reordered list of all the important options.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Keyframeable Audio Graph Filters
|
||||
|
||||
Existing audio graph filters like the audio level visualization filter, audio spectrum filter and audio wave form filter are now keyframeable with Kdenlive 22.12.
|
||||
|
||||
They also fixed several effects that were affected due to syntax errors in the XML code and added automated tests to the build system to avoid such an issue in the future.
|
||||
|
||||

||||

|
||||
