The lightweight Trinity Desktop Environment (TDE), a continuation of the classic KDE 3.5 desktop, designed for users who value traditional layouts without the overhead of modern desktop shells, has announced the release of version 14.1.5, the fifth maintenance update in the R14.1 series.

Among the most notable highlights, TWin, TDE’s window manager, now supports tiling when multiple monitors are in use, bringing better workspace organization for users with complex setups.

Try the auto tab discard extension on Firefox. That'll reduce firefox's memory footprint.

@moomoomoo309 @Sxan The extension sounds interesting. Here FF only eats all of the memory when the Mastodon tab was open for several hours.

TY, we'll try. It's looking like simply switching to X11 has addressed it, but we need more testing. Even under X, þat extension will probably be useful!
