If you have yet to try the developing Budgie desktop, the latest release of Ubuntu Budgie is a perfect opportunity to experience a classy and user-friendly computing platform.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Budgie is one of the first home-grown Linux distros to release its latest version based on Ubuntu 18.04. The independent developer announced Ubuntu Budgie 18.04 last week, coinciding with Canonical\u2019s release of Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Canonical also offers a Budgie desktop option in Ubuntu Linux. However, the two Ubuntu-branded distros are not the same thing.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Ubuntu Budgie is maintained by a UK-based developer community. Formerly Budgie Remix, the Ubuntu Budgie distro is a desktop Linux distribution featuring the simple Budgie desktop. Ubuntu Budgie is not from Canonical.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
The Solus community originally developed Budgie from scratch and tightly integrated the desktop user interface with the GNOME stack. Solus also offers the GNOME and MATE desktops. Ubuntu Budgie only comes in one flavor.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Ubuntu Budgie 18.04 is the community\u2019s first Long Term Support release good for three years instead of the nine-month release cycle. This new release comes with numerous new features, fixes and optimizations.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
The improvements include more customization options via Budgie Welcome, more available Budgie applets, dynamic workspaces, hot-corners and Window shuffler, plus a new GTK+ theme called \u201cPocillo.\u201d You also get new applets as standard in the panel or available to be added via Budgie Settings.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
