Some great news: I’m pleased to announce that both Dell and Lenovo have agreed to be premier sponsors for the Linux Vendor Firmware Service (LVFS) as part of our new sustainability effort.
Over 145 million firmware updates have been deployed now, from over a hundred different vendors to millions of different Linux devices.
With the huge industry support from Lenovo and Dell (and our existing sponsors of Framework, OSFF, and of course both the Linux Foundation and Red Hat) we can build this ecosystem stronger and higher than before; we can continue the great work we’ve done long into the future.
