With that in mind, Canonical hosted a design sprint in January with members of the Yaru community team, Ubuntu desktop and design teams. For most operating system vendors, having a distinctive look for the operating system is important in establishing their brand. You can’t miss the refreshed Yaru theme, from boot splash to the desktop. With that said, let’s take a look at what’s new in this release. This is why we are committed to delivering a first-class workstation experience to fuel continued innovation and keep Ubuntu at the vanguard.

By placing the very best of open-source in the hands of Ubuntu Desktop users, the Linux desktop is where all the major waves of tech innovation have come from in recent years. So even though Ubuntu is a popular community story, which we still celebrate today with emerging desktop remixes of Ubuntu such as Ubuntu Cinnamon, Ubuntu Deepin and Ubuntu Lumina, it is also a significant part of how we have moved to the mainstream. As a consequence, Ubuntu was the first choice in these new domains. These have all emerged while we’ve been working on the Linux desktop, and all of these innovations have driven waves of Ubuntu Desktop adoption in the enterprise. They want to build the next big thing, such as AI/ML, self-driving cars, public cloud services, and container orchestration. Nothing could be farther from the truth, and here’s why the people who use Ubuntu Desktop are often passionate people making huge waves in their industry.

Ubuntu 20.04 LTS is an enterprise-grade, secure, cost-effective operating system for organisations and home users.īefore I summarise the changes in this release, let’s address something I’ve seen discussed in the wider desktop Linux community there is a perception that the desktop is no longer a priority for us.

Ubuntu is the world’s most popular open-source desktop operating system, and we think this is our best release to date.
