Homecoming? Ubuntu Unity Remix Submitted Proposal for Official Flavour Tag
Missing Unity? Your wait might get over with Ubuntu Unity 22.10 as the team submitted a proposal to be accepted as the next official Ubuntu flavour.
Unity desktop was initially designed for Netbook computers; hence its user interface was different from traditional desktops. It introduced the Hud search, Global Menu, Fixed dock and many other features.
It’s been many years since Canonical – the original creator of the Unity desktop environment, abandoned it. Canonical officially replaced Unity with GNOME on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS release onwards.
However, a group of open-source folks continued its development over the years, and an unofficial Ubuntu Unity Remix featuring the Unity desktop was introduced in Ubuntu 20.04 LTS on April 2020.
