Apr 1, 2026April 2026 monthly summary for PostHog/posthog-python: Delivered OS Distribution Aware Event Data, enabling distro-level analytics for Linux environments. This involved updating OS info gathering utilities to return distribution along with name and version, and extending the event data model to capture os_distro. The work strengthens analytics fidelity, enables finer segmentation in dashboards, and lays groundwork for distro-specific insights and product decisions across customers using the Python client.
