From 3609968a42a8c2199683e637466942f40bda4187 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Heinemeier Hansson Date: Sun, 11 Oct 2026 05:57:28 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Stop shipping OBS Studio and Kdenlive to new installs (#14962) Monologue records and Omacut trims, which covers what most people used them for. Existing installs keep both; there is no migration, and the preinstall removal no longer treats them as Omarchy's to uninstall.
