It’s been a while since our last proper update on the Parch Linux blog, and we owe you an apology for that. Development, testing, and a few unexpected hurdles have kept us busy, and we let our posts slide. We’re sorry for the gap and deeply appreciate your patience and support as we keep Parch Linux moving forward. Today, October 20, 2025, just days after Windows 10’s support ended on October 14, we’re sharing a detailed look at what’s been happening with Parch over the past few months. This post covers new releases, tools, and core improvements, all aimed at making Parch a versatile, Arch-based distro for everyone from desktop users to mobile experimenters. Let’s dive into what’s new, with each development broken down clearly.

Channels are not fully encrypted, end-to-end. All communications on a Telegram channel can be seen by anyone on the channel and are also visible to Telegram. Telegram may be asked by a government to hand over the communications from a channel. Telegram has a history of standing up to Russian government requests for data, but how comfortable you are relying on that history to predict future behavior is up to you. Because Telegram has this data, it may also be stolen by hackers or leaked by an internal employee. Although some channels have been removed, the curation process is considered opaque and insufficient by analysts. "He has kind of an old-school cyber-libertarian world view where technology is there to set you free," Maréchal said. "The inflation fire was already hot and now with war-driven inflation added to the mix, it will grow even hotter, setting off a scramble by the world’s central banks to pull back their stimulus earlier than expected," Chris Rupkey, chief economist at FWDBONDS, wrote in an email. "A spike in inflation rates has preceded economic recessions historically and this time prices have soared to levels that once again pose a threat to growth." At its heart, Telegram is little more than a messaging app like WhatsApp or Signal. But it also offers open channels that enable a single user, or a group of users, to communicate with large numbers in a method similar to a Twitter account. This has proven to be both a blessing and a curse for Telegram and its users, since these channels can be used for both good and ill. Right now, as Wired reports, the app is a key way for Ukrainians to receive updates from the government during the invasion.
