The latest Ubuntu LTS is here, but does it live up to the hype? And how practical are the new ZFS features? We dig into the performance, security, and stability of Focal Fossa.

Plus our thoughts on the new KWin fork, if Bleachbit is safe, and a quick Fedora update.

Special Guests: Brent Gervais and Drew DeVore.
