Daily AcreetionOS Update -- September 25, 2026
First, an apology about how this reaches you.
The newsletter should never have pinged you. Deciding that your phone was worth interrupting is not our call to make, and we made it for you. Sorry.
From today it is simply pushed out. The newsletter posts into the channel and stops there: no mentions, no pings, no push notifications, nothing that lights up your phone. Read it if you want it. Ignore it, and you will never hear about it from us again.
And one bit of housekeeping we should have caught sooner: our Atom feed at acreetionos.org/feed.xml quietly stopped updating on August 14 and we did not notice for six weeks. It is fixed and rebuilt — 121 issues, current through today, and now regenerated every six hours so it cannot go stale again.
