Mon avis sur Ubuntu Mate

PeerTube

Switched to #UbuntuMATE 24.04 LTS until I can finally switch to #Trisquel.

#Ubuntu #GNU #Linux

I'm very sad that Ubuntu MATE 26.04 LTS is not coming. I didn't know that Martin Wimpress stepped down as lead developer a long time ago. I've been using it on the same laptop for 8 years mainly because of the influence of Martin Wimpress.. Do you think Ubuntu MATE's future could be like Peppermint? #ubuntu #ubuntumate #opensource #linux #development

Ubuntu MATE's founder is stepping back after 12 years - OMG! Ubuntu

OMG! Ubuntu
I am eagerly anticipating the release of the Wayfire compositor for Ubuntu MATE 26.04. I have watched several videos showcasing the animations of the Wayland version of Wayfire. Additionally, I have previously seen a variety of animations from Compiz on X11. I've been looking forward to its contemporary iteration. My excitement is high! I truly hope that Ubuntu MATE will outperform other desktop environments this time around. #ubuntu #wayland #Wayfire #linux #ubuntumate

Ive been using Ubuntu MATE for years. I've never seen this before.
