This week on Destination Linux, we’re putting software to the test with a brand-new community tool at IsItReallyFOSS.com, a site that helps you find out if projects claiming to be open source live up to it. Then Jill takes us through the latest release of Fastfetch 2.49, the modern Neofetch alternative that’s quickly becoming the go-to tool for showing off your Linux system specs. Plus we look into a troubling story about a free VPN Chrome extension that secretly spied on users while posing as a trusted privacy tool. All of this and more on this episode of Destination Linux.
