Now we customize Calamares via a simple config file, the way Calamares suggest that you do the customizations, and Calamares is now respecting the system’s theme too. No more old packages and rusty code.
Beaver Notes, our default notes app, moved from beaver-notes-bin to beaver-notes. We recommend that you remove the bin version and install the non-bin one from the repos.
We had to remove some of the themes from our TROMjaro Theme Switcher app because they were not playing well with the QT apps, so if you’re wondering why there aren’t as many themes as before this is why. Those people who like to have more customization options don’t worry you can still access all of those themes from the XFCE Appearance settings, just be aware that some of the themes may not play well with QT apps like mentioned before.
Changed the default layout to Windows-like, added custom GTK CSS, made the HUD wider, option to have a Virtual Keyboard toggle, switched to list view for the Appfinder, implemented a new Theme Switcher and the Flatpak fix using a new Colloid theme, improved the script for syncing the themes, better HiDPI support with automatic fixes for scaling, TROMjaro Welcome app.
Added the system-wide ad and tracker blocker (Internet Content Blocker) next to WebDAV support for Thunar and fingerprint reader support. Have a look!
Basically TROMjaro uses the latest Xfce and provides these from the get-go:
the Layout Switcher app with 6 customized layouts to make it easier to use and more functional (it can replicate most of the well known OS layouts out there: Windows, MX, Unity, MacOS, GNOME, TopX)
the new Theme Switcher app with dark/light themes and 10 color pairs to choose from (works with gtk, qt, even libadwaita, even with flatpacks!! - the ones that accept system theming)
tens of high quality flat-wallpapers that are hand-picked
a custom icon theme
the new system theme that has 10 color variations & is integrated very well into the entire system, supporting both GTK and QT apps
makes the terminal super cool, switching from bash to zsh
enables mouse and trackpad gestures via 2 separate apps (very powerful apps)
allows to control of RGB lights for the keyboard
automated system backups & a file-system backup app
apps to open or edit most known audio, image, documents or torrent files
a customized Firefox that removes the BS, the trackers, ads, sponsored content, and a lot more
you can even download media files from the browser itself, from most websites, or access scientific papers for free
basic apps to record your desktop, voice, webcam app, notes app
app to share unlimited amount of files
app to communicate with anyone without any server involved (text, video or audio)
a trade-free VPN to protect your internet usage
a powerful password manager that's integrated with the browser
a great RSS reader
a map explorer
and hundreds of trade-free hand curated apps that you can install from the website directly

Open-source private logbook with a local agentic layer
Lotti is an open-source personal logbook — tasks, time recordings, voice notes, transcriptions, journal entries, habits, and health data — paired with an agentic layer of long-living AI agents that observe, suggest, summarise, and nudge. The agents run on your machine. With a powerful enough device, the model they call can run locally too — meaning your data never has to leave the device at all. On lighter hardware, or when you need to save battery, you keep the same agentic experience and route inference to a cloud provider you choose, on a per-category basis.
No accounts, no telemetry, no cloud storage. End-to-end encrypted multi-device sync runs over Matrix using Vodozemac (Rust) for Megolm crypto; the homeserver you bring relays only ciphertext between your own devices, and encryption keys reach only devices you have verified. Your logbook is an ordinary SQLite file on your own disk, readable without Lotti, so there is nothing to export and nothing to unlock.
Get support and join the Lotti community on Discord via the Contact link.
What it does:
Long-living AI agents (mission, soul, report directive) that read your logbook, propose changes, and only act after you approve
Two-database architecture: a strict separation between your facts (the user database) and what the agents think (the agentic database), enforced on disk
Run reasoning-capable models locally via oMLX or Ollama (e.g. Qwen 3.6 35B A3B, a Mixture-of-Experts model with ~3B active parameters) — or use Gemini Flash, OpenAI, Anthropic, Mistral, Melious.ai, or any OpenAI-compatible cloud provider, on a per-category basis
Local voice transcription with Whisper or Voxtral; cloud transcription via Gemini, OpenAI, Mistral, or Melious.ai
AI-generated cover art for tasks via Nano Banana Pro on Gemini, OpenAI, or Qwen, and Flux on Melious.ai
Both the logbook and the agentic state sync end-to-end encrypted
Habit tracking with success/fail/skip completion types, custom measurables, and dashboards
Bring-your-own API keys for cloud providers, choosing per category where inference happens — EU-hosted, US, Chinese, or entirely on your own machine
Usage & Impact: tokens and requests for every cloud AI call, broken down by category and model, plus cost, energy and CO2e wherever the provider reports them (currently Melious); local inference is not measured
Time recording kept separate from planning, so what you meant to do and what actually happened stay distinct facts
