Wait’s Over: elementary OS 7.1 Releases With a Focus on Privacy
A new system has been added to the distro that handles the auto-start of applications, and even alerts you when apps are running in the background.
The autostart behavior of many core apps such as Calendar, Mail, and Tasks can now be controlled thanks to this new 'Background & Autostart’ portal.
The same portal also handles the permissions for applications, with the 'Location Services’ being improved with a more secure method for allowing apps to request location access.
It follows the latest FreeDesktop.org standard for achieving that.
