Kali Linux 2022.4

During the past August, Offensive Security He launched the third version of 2022 of its operating system, and among its news it told us about one that had nothing to do with the operating system itself. They started their community on Discord, a social network they weren't on until then. A few hours ago, the company made the launch of KaliLinux 2022.4, and now we can find it in more social networks.

One of the services where they have gone or where they have created a profile should not be a surprise. Since Elon Musk bought Twitter, rumors have been circulating that there may be problems in the famous microblogging network, which is why many projects have created an account and/or a server on the "elephant" network, more specifically Mastodon (here your profile). On the other hand, they have taken advantage of the inertia and are also on Instagram (here your profile).
