[clubic.com] L'open source se dote d'un fond de pérennité inédit dans la tech
✍ Naïm Bada, le vendredi 27 février 2026.
Le financement de l’open source ressemble depuis des années à une quête de bonnes volontés. Un fonds de dotation vient de changer la donne. La promesse est ambitieuse. La question, elle, reste entière.

✍ Naïm Bada, le lundi 23 février 2026.

Venom Linux is an independently-developed, rolling-release distribution inspired by CRUX. It targets experienced Linux users. Venom uses SysV init as the main init system and BSD-like ports as software packages which are managed by a custom package management tool called scratchpkg (written in compliance with POSIX standards). The distribution offers a simple graphical desktop built around the Openbox window manager and a text-mode system installer. 
Genuen is a spin of Devuan GNU+Linux consisting exclusively of Free Software (as defined by the Free Software Foundation) and a choice of several alternative init systems, such as OpenRC, Runit, s6 and SysV. The distribution ships with the GNU Linux-libre kernel. The project provides installation images for desktop and server deployments, as well as pre-configured live images with JWM, KDE Plasma, Openbox and Xfce desktops available for the i686 and x86_64 architectures. 
LainOS is a lightweight, Arch Linux-based desktop distribution aimed at developers, tinkerers and hackers. As a choice of graphical environments, it offers the Hyprland Wayland compositor and the Openbox window manager. The distribution also features the Calamares system installer, personalised yet functional visual aesthetics, and a selection of useful software. LainOS is intended for users who share the admiration of Serial Experiments Lain, a Japanese anime television series. 
February 2026 delivered a fresh batch of Linux app releases, with updates to VLC, GIMP, Vivaldi, and VirtualBox among the many that filtered out. I covered some of the month’s biggest releases with full-length features, including Firefox 148’s new AI ‘kill switch’, the ONLYOFFICE 9.3 and LibreOffice 26.2 productivity suite updates, and Linux weather app Typhoon’s Qt 6 port. But they weren’t the only software updates to slip out. Below, I run through a fleet of other app updates February play host to. Some updates were of the modest maintenance variety, while others saw more substantial change-logs. Ardour’s big update […]
Berserk Arch is an Arch Linux-based, rolling-release distribution designed primarily for power users, security researchers and developers. It uses a customised Openbox window manager. The distribution offers a modular environment with pre-configured desktop profiles, secure package infrastructure and curated toolsets. 
KDE Linux is a user-focused, general-purpose Linux distribution. It is built by KDE and it is meant to showcase the best implementation of everything KDE has to offer, using the most advanced technologies. The distribution's base packages come from Arch Linux, while everything else is either compiled by the kde-builder tool or included as Flatpak packages. KDE Linux does not come with any traditional package manager, but supports installing Flatpak, Snap or AppImage applications. As it has an immutable base, system updates involve replacing the operating system image with an entirely new one. 
PimersusOS is desktop Linux distribution based on Debian's "Stable" branch and featuring the Xfce desktop. It was built around the Pimersus web browser, a WebKit-based browser that incorporates advanced privacy and security features, including ad blocking, phishing protection and web tracking shield. The distribution aims to be lightweight, efficient and suitable for older computers. 
Vendefoul Wolf is a set of lightweight, Devuan-based Linux distributions featuring various popular desktop environments, including Budgie, Cinnamon, KDE Plasma, LXQt, Trinity and Xfce. As the init software, it offers a choice between SysV and runit. Some of the distribution's other main features include the LibreWolf web browser, the Calamares system installer, an application store, and its own repository of software packages. Besides the main edition, Vendefoul Wolf also produces various community spins with alternative desktops and window managers.
