postmarketOS v25.06 release announcement

While adding systemd to postmarketOS is certainly the tentpole feature of this release, it also updates the various user interfaces - GNOME's and KDE's mobile shells and applications - and moves to Alpine Linux 3.22 as its base. The mobile user interfaces for both Firefox and Thunderbird have been updated as well, there's a ton of improvements and additions for individual devices, and a lot more.

PostmarketOS, in case you are unaware, is a Linux distribution optimised for smartphones, focused on running mobile shells and applications. It's not ready for prime-time quite yet, and device support will probably be the biggest hurdle for anyone wanting to try it out.
