Varia is a Brand New Download Manager for Linux
As the user interface is built with GTK 4 and libadwaita, Varia looks perfectly in-keeping with other modern GTK apps Ubuntu offers...
Of course, it’s 2023 and we all (apparently) live in a world of blazing fast internet connections, where giant files download via web browsers in seconds, and anything else we need can be streamed or accessed on-demand.
Are dedicated desktop download managers still useful?
If you need to download a large file over an unreliable internet connection (or if your computer dies mid-way through said transfer) download managers let you resume interrupted downloads. This saves time and bandwidth, and help keep your cortisol levels nice and low.
