The Endless OS Foundation announced the release and general availability of the newest version of their Debian-based and application-centric operating system, Endless OS 6, designed for everyday use.
Constructed upon Debian GNU/Linux 12 “Bookworm” operating system series, Endless OS 6 has arrived after more than a year since the release of Endless OS 5. It features a refreshed aesthetic and functionality for all core apps, based on the GNOME 43 desktop environment series. This includes a new preference for dark style, enhancements in screenshot and screen recording capabilities, as well as updates for apps.
Endless OS 6 integrates applications from the GNOME 43 desktop environment series and the GNOME 46.1 release. It includes GNOME Calculator 46.1, GNOME Text Editor 46.1, the Epiphany (GNOME Web) 46.0 web browser, Decibels 46.0 music player, and the Loupe (Image Viewer) 46.2.
Apart from the GNOME Software app store which originates from the GNOME 45 stack, the remaining apps and utilities stem from the GNOME 43 series. Bundled with this release, users will also find the latest LibreOffice 24.2 office suite and Chromium 124 as the default web browser , in addition to the exclusive Endless Key educational app.
Under the hood, Endless OS 6 is powered by the Linux 6.5 kernel series and ships with PipeWire 1.0 for improved audio device handling. This release also promises to handle low memory (RAM) situations much better than previous releases for older hardware.
