    Now that’s worth an update. I really miss gestures.

      Agreed. I switch between a mint laptop and an M1Pro - I miss the feature and am looking forward to it. As well, the HEIF support will be a blessing.

    I’ve probably not used Cinnamon in close to ten years. Do they have plans to support Wayland yet?

    Oh this is great news! Back when I had linux mint on my laptop, I tried to fix the lack of gestures, and the program I downloaded ended up locking me out of my login page. It would be great to see gestures baked in.

      That’s wild, do you remember what the program was by chance?

        Nope, its been a couple years. It was a program that let you add custom gestures.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
