“For those eager to try out the Blender 5.0 release binaries, they can be found via this mirror for those having troubles accessing Blender.org.
Blender 5.0 is set to deliver a variety of animation enhancements, HDR and wide color gamut support on Linux when using Vulkan and Wayland, a human base mesh bundle has been contributed by the community for a realistic skeleton asset, larger buffers in Blend files, big endian support has been removed, curves drawing has been rewritten, support for LZO and LZMA has been dropped in favor of Zstd for point caches, various file format handling improvements, improved Vulkan support, and much more. AMD HIP-RT is also now considered stable in Blender 5.0 but not being enabled by default until Blender 5.1 next year.”
