The new Q4OS 'Orion' 1.8.5 is the latest stable version of the distribution and comes with various improvements and fixes (Once released, download the ISOs before the official announcement).
The most important new feature is the integration of alternative work environments. So if you do not like the Trinity desktop, you can choose to change to another Linux-like Linux: KDE, Xfce, or LXDE.
The Q4OS Orion distribution stopped supporting the LXQT and according to the developers it will come back with the release of Q4OS Scorpion.
Η application Icedove messages is no longer available from the Q4OS installer as it has been replaced by Thunderbird 45.8.
