The Ubuntu 24.04 support drop is thanks to the native builds requiring some newer dependencies. Anyhow, there’s more to this Ghostty release than that. itsfoss.com/news/ghostty-1-4…

A privacy-first DNS resolver just chose to leave an entire country rather than lie to its users. Quad9 is shutting off its free DNS service in France on November 24, after a French court ordered it to block domains that BeIN Sports claimed were facilitating sports piracy. Quad9 refused. "We categorically refuse to alter or lie to you about the DNS responses you receive in a way that opposes your expectations." The court had actually reduced the fine to just €1,000 per day. Quad9 still walked away. Because the real problem was not the fine. It was the precedent. Complying would mean either applying French copyright law to Quad9's global DNS infrastructure, or using geo-blocking methods that Quad9 considers technically unreliable and ethically compromised. Either way, the integrity of the service breaks. This is what it looks like when a privacy tool takes its mission seriously. Most services would have quietly blocked the domains and moved on. Quad9 chose to exit instead 👏
