Matt from Linux Out Loud guest hosts with Jill and Ryan to dive into major internet events and Linux news! We tackle Ryan's "disappointing" take according to a listerner on EU censorship and free speech, discuss the massive Cloudflare outage that took half the internet down, debate if antivirus is necessary on Linux, and look at ProtonDB and the Steam Survey to see if Linux gaming has already won.
