    Description:
    The Raspberry Pi project has announced a new version of Raspberry Pi OS. It includes a number of
    significant changes, the most notable of which is that the Raspberry
    Pi Desktop now uses Wayland by default for all Pi models using the labwc compositor: For most of this year, we have been working on porting labwc to the
    Raspberry Pi Desktop. This has very much been a collaborative process
    with the developers of both labwc and wlroots: both have helped us
    immensely with their support as we contribute features and
    optimisations needed for our desktop. This release also features Linux
    6.6.51, improved touchscreen support, a new
    screen configuration tool called raindrop , and more. See the release
    notes for a full list of changes.
