What's New in Ubuntu since 2010?
I know it seems lazy, but it's not. I've been an absolute lover of Ubuntu and gnu/linux for a lot of years. But then I switched to OSX.
Now, I am wondering how much and what way are Ubuntu and other open source OSes improved in the last 3 years?
- mox1 13y agoWell I'm not going to say "improvement", but as far as new, they are attempting to replace X11 with something call Mir - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Mir/Spec https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Mir/Spec
- ccarnino 13y agoMir will help make a better and responsive UIs and desktop experiences. But can the user notice that? There has been some next big thing happening?
- trentlott 13y agoUbuntu '11 was the first to use Unity as default. It was also the last release I used before switching to Mint.
- ccarnino 13y agoIs a real thing this Unity? I saw it and it seemed me a bit bulky.
- mariuolo 13y agoUnity, amazon lens, upstart, upcoming mir. In short, a bunch of stuff nobody really wanted.
- ccarnino 13y agoMy impression with all Linux distributions is that at the end are made for developers/techies. There's a lack of user centric focus.
