Ubuntu 18.04: Unity is gone, Gnome is back, and Ubuntu has never been better
I've been skipping all the Unity drama by staying on Xubuntu which is really snappy and stays out of your way.Also, Gnome on this laptop (Dell Inspiron 15 7000) gave me (and several others users, as per forum post https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2358975 and some bug reports I found on the internet) a freeze or stutter every 10 or so seconds. So instead of having to start debugging shit from a fresh Linux install like I used to do in early 199x linux days, I chose to install xubuntu and just get to work and be productive.Try XFCE today, really (and install all gnome apps should you need to run something from that desktop environment: they integrate great with xfce).o/
