Tails website link: https://tails.boum.org/news/version_5.14/index.en.html
New Features:
-
Persistent storage automatic migration to LUKS2 with Argon2id. Previous cryptographic standards used for persistent storage in Tails 5.12 and earlier are weak to state-sponsored attackers with physical device access. It will migrate automatically, butits's advised if you do not have a very strong password to change it.
-
Option in Tails Installer to backup Persistent Storage
-
Captive portal detection during Tor connection to allow signing into network when needed (such as motels)
-
Donate option built into Electrum - Support the Tails team if you can!

daredevil-tails-hack-0-5.zip -- Flatpak & Signal
This is my first try to add some spirit of adventure to boring TAILS reality. My thanks to all people – known and unknown to me – who provided parts and variants of this solution, guidance, and encouragement. No work is done alone. Attached please find a pack of simple scripts and guidelines how to install #Flatpak and #Signal under Tails. Solution is crude-ish, no integration with Gnome and scripts are spewing some warnings.
So consider it experimental and for fun only!
I plan to add some more apps (Delta Chat and Briar for starters) and also, thanks to your generous feedback, ;-) to improve quality from "daredevil" through "intrepid" and eventually to "boringly routine".
I hope you'll like it.
