Where Does the Linux Desktop Go from Here?

We'll explore the past, present, and future direction of the Linux desktop ecosystem, covering technologies such as OSTree, Flatpak, and platform libraries (such as libadwaita.) The primary focus of this talk will be the changing model of how Linux native applications are developed, distributed, and consumed. We'll also touch on other improvements to the desktop experience, and share our view for the future.
