Linux 7.0 is here.
This is not just a version bump. It reflects where Linux is heading, better support for next-gen AMD and Intel hardware, cleaner code, and a continued shift away from legacy systems that slow everything down.
At the same time, new work for 7.1 is already landing, including Rust improvements, power management updates, and deeper system-level changes.
For anyone running self-hosted setups, nodes, or sovereignty-focused infrastructure, this matters. A stronger kernel means a stronger base layer you actually control.
