A Quick Look at Ubuntu 21.10’s Yaru Theme Changes

The upcoming Ubuntu 21.10 release features a number of visual changes big and small, and in this post I run through the most notable ones. First up, the one you probably already know about: Ubuntu 21.10 uses the Yaru light theme by default. The ‘mixed’ version of the Yaru theme (dark headers but light control) has been jettisoned and is no longer available. Ubuntu’s Appearance settings pane is updated to reflect the change accordingly: Notice anything else different about the screenshot above? I won’t be surprised if you don’t as it’s a very subtle change. But, the selected row styling

Ubuntu Wants to Make Firefox Snap the Default in 21.10

Ubuntu is making the Firefox Snap package the default for new installations of Ubuntu 21.10, as well as those upgrading from Ubuntu 21.04. A feature freeze exception request opened to get the Firefox deb package in the Ubuntu ‘seed’ replaced with the Snap version states: “Per Canonical’s distribution agreement with Mozilla, we’re making the snap the default installation of firefox on desktop ISOs starting with Ubuntu 21.10”. Firefox is currently distributed via the Ubuntu repo as a deb package. But users who install Ubuntu 21.10 will, once the feature freeze request is granted, find the official Snap version of Firefox

Ubuntu 21.10 Default Wallpaper Revealed

Ubuntu 21.10’s new default wallpaper has been revealed. As expected, the new background doesn’t deviate from the recent trend of sporting a large animal mascot atop a purple and orange backdrop. But unlike unlike most of the recent mascot wallpapers produced this one is not designed using an angular origami style, nor is it composed entirely of circles (Bionic Beaver, Cosmic Cuttlefish, Hirsute Hippo). As well as a new default wallpaper, Ubuntu 21.10 will include the two winners from the recent Ubuntu 21.10 wallpaper contest. Ubuntu 21.10 is due for release in mid October. A beta release is expected next
