Visual Changes:
- It’s Ubuntu 20th birthday
- Ubuntu anniversary: you get a “20th anniversary“ text at boot and on the login screen,
- You get the Ubuntu startup sound, you can disable it in the settings
- You get a new “warty“ brown accent colour, which I absolutely love because I’m nostalgic of that era of Ubuntu, but other people might find it ugly to the extreme
- You get revamped Ubuntu LTS wallpapers, and wallpaper as well, so you can relive these wonderful moments
- I wish they had added the themes from various LTS as well, the theme, one, and maybe the one
Ubuntu specific changes
- Dock: progress bars when a snap is updating in the background, better than having the icon disappear then reappear
- Context menu is improved a bit, with a little header label and an other option: App Details, to open the app’s listing in the App Center. Only works for snap apps
- App Center has a new Art and design category, the “featured“ snaps section is moved up, in progress downloads are now visible in the “manage“ label of the sidebar
- You can also uninstall snaps from that “manage“ part of the app, and if you’re trying to update an app that’s open, you’ll see a banner telling you to close that ap to perform the update
- Touchscreen support is improved, but couldn’t test that myself
- Security Center: this is a new thing that lets you manage permissions for snap applications. Right now, you can enable an experimental permission that will trigger the new Ubuntu prompting client
- This is your “allow app to do X or Y“ kind of thing, where you can set permissions once, always, for any type of file, and the like, and you can then tweak these permissions in the securiyty center
- Think of it as the flatseal / flatpak permissions, but for snaps
- In the future, this thing will also get firewall controls, Ubuntu pro subscription settings, and more
GNOME 47:
- Accent colors plugged into a settings portal, so should work with more apps
- This means the colors that are offered are a bit different than previously
- Dialogs are revamped with split buttons, looks like macOS
- Hardware encoded screen recordings
- Nautilus new sidebar, network emplacements, internal drives in the sidebar now: no more other locations
- Nautilus: used as file picker
- Settings: Activate windws on hover in accessibility, input source previews with keyboard layouts, online accounts are better with MS 365 suporting email calendar and contacts, webdav auto discovers services, and IMPA SMTP also does autocomplete now
Under the hood
- Wayland for everyone, even Nvidia, but X11 is still preinstalled
- Better fingerprint support with a newer version of fprintd and libfprint, but can’t test that
- System profiling tools preinstalled, like sysprof, useful for developers to see why their app is underperoforming, or to optimize things
- APT command line tool also was updated to version 3.0, and the terminal UI is much more legible, with colors, padding, line breaks and spacing, so t’s way more readable
- Kernel with more hardware support and faster ext4 filesystem, Mesa and Nvidia 550 or 560
