Today, we're launching Modos Flow on @crowdsupply a 13.3" e-ink monitor for writing and focus.

Flow is easier on the eyes while staying responsive for typing and scrolling. It features a 3200 x 2400, 300 PPI e-ink screen at 60 Hz refresh, sub-100 ms latency, touch, and stylus support.

Our Paper Dev Kit gave makers an open platform for e-ink experimentation. Flow brings that work into a portable monitor for everyday use.

Thank you for helping shape e-ink computing.

I was recently made aware that bazaar now has OVER A MILLION FLATHUB DOWLOADS (installs + updates) https://klausenbusk.github.io/flathub-stats/#ref=io.github.kolunmi.Bazaar

@LAS I have an addenum to my presentation! Just another data point.

Super popular game (Arc Raiders), deployed on k8s.
AND one of the few multiplayer games where they don't lock us all out with the anticheat.

They nailed it on client. And they nailed it on cloud. Using all of our stuff. TOGETHER. Cloud and desktop ARE the same, it's just #linux

Gamers are going to save #linux.

Look at how proud they are of OSS:

Fedora Hummingbird is one of the more interesting things to come out of the container world this year.

I rebuilt my mastogreet bot on top of registry.access.redhat.com/hi/python, the new distroless Python image catalog from Project Hummingbird:

no shell
no package manager
signed SBOMs
chunked OCI layers
one surprisingly sharp UID footgun

The image only shrank ~10%, which turns out to be the least interesting part.

I wrote up the rebuild, the operational differences, and where Fedora Hummingbird Linux and Red Hat Hardened Images fit into the picture.

A #linux and #gnome extravaganza!

https://docs.projectbluefin.io/blog/bluefin-spring-2026/

Spent all weekend writing the #bluefin blog post for our upcoming releases - it's already our largest update and I'm not even half way done.

It's a good spring for #linux - lots of fantastic work happening across the ecosystem!

GNOME OS on an ePaper panel driven by @modos glider at 75hz over USB C. The cursor feel smoother than on some shitty 60hz LCD displays and scrolling around works surprisingly well. Absolute game changer for working on the balcony.

Hey I’m the developer of the Bazaar App Store! I absolutely love making Bazaar, it brings me a lot of joy. :)

Unfortunately I’m in a bad financial situation right now and my only source of income is from donations. I absolutely hate asking for money but it’s been kind of rough for me lately, so if you happen to enjoy my work and can comfortably toss me a coin, I would be extremely appreciative: https://ko-fi.com/kolunmi

Thanks so much!! Boosts appreciated <3
