Last year we announced #AppCenterForEveryone to move our pay-what-you-want app store to being based on Flatpak and available for use on any modern Linux desktop. We finally got together in person to work on that goal; here’s what we accomplished: https://blog.elementary.io/appcenter-dashboard-sprint/

And we’re excited to get all of the goodies of this release into the hands of developers and testers as we work to complete the stable release! https://blog.elementary.io/elementary-os-6-odin-beta/

We’ve been hard at work tackling the ambitious scope of work we laid out for ourselves while also dealing with the fallout of a global pandemic, travel restrictions, and loss in our own circles of family and friends.

Despite all of that, we’re proud of the work we’ve done.

Developers and testers, it’s the day you’ve been waiting for: elementary OS 6 Beta is available now! Read our announcement to find out more about the beta process as well as what’s new for you in this outstanding upcoming release. https://blog.elementary.io/elementary-os-6-odin-beta/

We’re in the final hours for #edw2021 submissions! If you've been holding off, get your proposal in NOW for a talk. :) It doesn’t have to be a full abstract, but should be a short description. We’ll be closing submissions at midnight PDT. https://edw.elementary.io/

Last chance! Call for papers for the first elementary Developer Weekend closes FRIDAY. If you’re a designer, developer, or entrepreneur with tips to share with people making apps for elementary OS, submit your idea or talk proposal ASAP! #edw2021 https://edw.elementary.io/

Okay, things are back up and running and stabilized. Carry on!

We’re aware of an issue with the store at the moment; it looks like you all overwhelmed things. 😅 Working to get it back and running smoothly.
