Ubuntu 16.04 Review Follow Up

Few things that were not mentioned in LAS:

• new option to always show menu has been added
• client side decoration is fully supported in Unity
• Gnome Calendar is installed by default
• Empathy has been removed similar to Brasero as not many people use desktop IM clients
• Startup Disk Creator have been update, and actually works
• Gnome Software has proper notifications (what Noah was saying has been fixed)
• Music and Messaging menus are dynamic now, for example if you use VLC to play media only controls for that player show up
• Unity now support 3rd party themes better
• most software are set to optional, so you can uninstall a key software and it won’t break your system
• The launcher, not only can you move it to the bottom, it also shows the icon of the application you launched to let the user know that it has been launched and is loading (for slower computers, this will help the user from accidentally launching it again)
• Launcher now properly shows different instances of nautilus (i.e. USB CD, Trash, Downloads, etc. are shown separately and not all clumped into one icon of Files)
• Gnome Software got comments and rating support

• Ubuntu 16.04 Intel Graphics: Unity, Xfce, KDE, LXDE, GNOME, MATE, Openbox – Phoronix

Again, it’s the out-of-the-box experience on each of the desktop environments without any tweaking. There’s also some desktop environment developers that recommend running Linux games in their own X.Org Server, etc.
