Firefox 149 adds built-in free VPN with 50GB monthly data

Redesigned LibreOffice app icons, new accessibility feature symbolics and an adaptive Calculator icon have also been introduced, alongside system-wide theme changes that pull Yaru closer to the style of vanilla GNOME Shell/Adwaita. But it's the colourful new folder icons that most will have strong feelings over [...]
