Hello Ubuntu fans,
We have created new videos showcasing various Ubuntu 18.04 LTS flavors. Do check them.

Hey Linux lovers,
we made a new video of Ubuntu Budgie 18.04. Do have a look at this one as well:

I don't like menu bar going back to under title bar :(

[Ashoke]

The sound setting for a bluetooth headphone did not work on 16.04.4 LTS, but it worked like a breeze on this edition of Ubuntu.

[VoidMoth]

gnome? why do they opt for soon to be deprecated software?

[maiznieksmaize]

The Kernal! :)
Great review, thanks!

[woobear]

Ubuntu seems stagnant to me. The background music seems to reflect it in this preview. Oh well.

[fredrik]

You can use scaling option on xorg finally

[Yazidn]

Sticking with my 16.04 and the lovely Unity. Thanks for the video!

[Luckelucke]

very well job. I think this looks good so far. In performance do you thing is faster and/or lighter than unity ?

[harjitsingh]

This version fixed my laptop overheating issues im so happy!! Also it runs so smoothly and loads much faster i think im in love with ubuntu again!

[UseFreeSpeech]

4:20 wow finaly, i forget it evry fcking time and wounder why the ppa dont work

[Xinthose]

Why does searching with the Windows key no longer look for files like it did in 16? It only finds software now. I thought they were going to remove the Amazon app.

[JOELwindows]

Why *Xorg* is default again? What's wrong with Wayland that has been *boldly claimed as better?*

[sanatkumargogoi]

LAN is not working after I upgraded to 18.04. My hardware is ok, lan cable modem etc are all working. Can you help?

[aliasdeee]

Most people I know use XFCE on Ubuntu to get away from the horrible app-store feeling of the default desktop. Is this a situation unique to my group of friends? Will this still be an option?

[Totogita]

How Manny utilities got left behind this time? Do I now need to keep a working copy, like I do for Windows xp, on a virtual machine just to be able to use the irreplaceable software that got left behind?

[amcsi]

Ah no wonder my Ubuntu 18.04 beta looks so much better than in this video... I didn't realize I was using Ubuntu Budgie :D
The official Ubuntu unfortunately still resembles the ugly Unity despite being GNOME.

And what to do against this terrible waste of screen space, the top bar?
I have Ubuntu 16.04.
There are many important icons on the right side of the top bar.
There is the menu of the just right now full screen program on the left side of the top bar.
I have installed Ubuntu 16.04 on 5 laptops with one feature in common: 1368x768 screen.
So I really do not like, when maybe 18 pixel height get lost.
