@rugk @sheogorath Yep, I did. I shared the *localhost* URL on my development machine publicly on Mastodon.

I have successfully upraded an §elementaryOS laptop from 5 -> 6 by replacing 'bionic' with 'focal' in apt/sources.list and the .d/* occurances.

A little dance with apt update && apt dist-upgrade && apt auto-remove did the rest.

GPL is basically the software equivalent of Creative Commons Attribution ShareAlike.

We've published a blog post to explain the impact of the log4j security vulnerabilities on the Matrix ecosystem: https://matrix.org/blog/2021/12/15/on-matrix-and-the-log-4-j-vulnerabilities. TL;DR: if you run your own Jitsi or signald (or other java-based component), you need to apply mitigations immediately.
