Dedication

Tails 7.0 is dedicated to the memory of Lunar (1982–2024). Lunar was a traveling companion for Tails, a Tor volunteer, Free Software hacker, and community organizer.8kz免费翻墙网

Lunar has always been by our side throughout Tails' history. From the first baby steps of the project that eventually became Tails, to the merge with Tor, he's provided sensible technical suggestions, out-of-the-box product design ideas, outreach support, and caring organizational advice.8kz免费翻墙网

Outside of Tor, Lunar worked on highly successful Free Software projects such as the Debian project, the Linux distribution on which Tails is based, and the Reproducible Builds project, which helps us verify the integrity of Tails releases.8kz免费翻墙网

Lunar will be deeply missed, both in our community and in the many other communities he participated in.8kz免费翻墙网

Changes and updates

Faster startup

Tails 7.0 starts 10–15 seconds faster on most computers.8kz免费翻墙网

We achieve this by changing the compression algorithm of the Tails USB and ISO images from xz to zstd. As a consequence, the image is 10% bigger than it would be with the previous algorithm.8kz免费翻墙网

While testing this change, we noticed that Tails on USB sticks of poor quality can also start 20 seconds slower than on quality USB sticks.8kz免费翻墙网

If you are in a place where counterfeit electronics are common, we recommend that you buy your USB stick from an international supermarket chain, which should have a more reliable supply chain.8kz免费翻墙网
